ANZA meaning ‘to sit at ease’ in Japanese, ANZA is a seating collection comprising a pouffe, bench and coffee table. The designers have updated a Kyoto-based textile, originally produced in the 18th century with a patchwork pattern, with a new color scale to match the official PWTBS color range. To complete the seating ensemble, with its high-gloss lacquer and oiled oak finishing, they have also added their own low coffee table based on a similar design vocabulary and featuring a durable Carrara marble top. This collection, part of a wider modular system, aims at enhancing both domestic and public environments. Additional information: Materials: tabletop in durable Nero black Carrara marble...

Primitive Coffee Table by Newanderthal for Superego Editions, Italy
Located in Milan, Italy
Primitive coffee table by Newanderthal for Superego Editions. All made by hand as a sculpture in polyurethane painted with a special paint to obtain a resistant and soft effect like rubber. Unique pieces 2022. Newanderthal Collection Approximately 40,000 years ago: a group of Neanderthal men and women go about their daily activities. They prey on deers, boars and mammoths for food; they make tools from flint, bones and wood. They live in cold barren caves and their days are all the same. On a day that seems like any other day, the men are getting ready to go hunting and the women are attending to their babies and preparing animal skins. All of a sudden, the sky turns a ghastly color. Everything becomes dark. The cave people have no idea of what is going on. They’re terrified. Everything looks gloomy. In a flash, the black sky is infused with an intense kaleidoscopic light that illuminates everything. And then there’s a loud thump. A fucsia meteorite has rocketed down from the sky, producing an enormous impact crater. The cave people cannot believe their eyes; they’re petrified. Only the youngest man in the tribe and his girl, though startled, dare to approach the crater, while the others run away. The adventurous couple goes down the crater to check out this huge, bizarre and colorful rock that blinds them with its light. They reach the meteorite and start touching and sniffing it out, suspiciously. As they try to figure out what happened, the meteorite seems to come to life: it opens a time portal and the two are plunged into the present. Specifically in Milan, and precisely in the subway, at rush hour. They’re terrified and have no idea of what is going on around them. They see these strange people clad in strange colorful hides moving around hurriedly, in hectic sync with each other. The couple follows the crowd outside the subway. They come to a group of people gathered at the entrance of a large building. Filled with curiosity, the two get closer. The small crowd stares at them but in a sort of intrigued way. They think they are part of some bizarre performance! Our friends enter the big building. It’s the Design Museum. “What’s going on?” — they wonder — “Where are we?”. Everything is so weird and incredibly amusing at the same time. They look around. “What in the world are those mysterious utensils?”. They start sniffing and touching everything: chairs, sofas, lamps and tables, whatever they see. What’s the use of that strange object with 4 legs and a backrest? What are the tables and desks for? You can lie down on them! And the lights? They are fascinated and amazed by all they see. Then, at one point they see that blinding fucsia light again. They are drawn to it. They can’t resist it, they have to follow it. They enter a room with the Ultrafragola mirror...

Antique, New and Vintage Coffee Tables and Cocktail Tables

As a practical focal point in your living area, antique and vintage coffee tables and cocktail tables are an invaluable addition to any interior.

Low tables that were initially used as tea tables or coffee tables have been around since at least the mid- to late-1800s. Early coffee tables surfaced in Victorian-era England, likely influenced by the use of tea tables in Japanese tea gardens. In the United States, furniture makers worked to introduce low, long tables into their offerings as the popularity of coffee and “coffee breaks” took hold during the late 19th century and early 20th century.

It didn’t take long for coffee tables and cocktail tables to become a design staple and for consumers to recognize their role in entertaining no matter what beverages were being served. Originally, these tables were as simple as they are practical — as high as your sofa and made primarily of wood. In recent years, however, metal, glass and plastics have become popular in coffee tables and cocktail tables, and design hasn’t been restricted to the conventional low profile, either.

Visionary craftspeople such as Paul Evans introduced bold, geometric designs that challenge the traditional idea of what a coffee table can be. The elongated rectangles and wide boxy forms of Evans’s desirable Cityscape coffee table, for example, will meet your needs but undoubtedly prove imposing in your living space.

If you’re shopping for an older coffee table to bring into your home — be it an antique Georgian-style coffee table made of mahogany or walnut with decorative inlays or a classic square mid-century modern piece comprised of rosewood designed by the likes of Ettore Sottsass — there are a few things you should keep in mind.

Both the table itself and what you put on it should align with the overall design of the room, not just by what you think looks fashionable in isolation. According to interior designer Tamara Eaton, the material of your vintage coffee table is something you need to consider. “With a glass coffee table, you also have to think about the surface underneath, like the rug or floor,” she says. “With wood and stone tables, you think about what’s on top.”

Find the perfect centerpiece for any room, no matter what your personal furniture style on 1stDibs. Browse a vast selection of antique, new and vintage coffee table and cocktail tables today.
