Epicure Coffee Table, 1 of 1 by Grzegorz Majka
Located in Geneve, CH
The Epicure coffee table, 1 of 1 by Grzegorz Majka
Edition 1 of 1
Dimensions: 98.54 x 86.61 x 17.72 in
Materials: Marble, quartz and brass
“The Epicure I” - contemporary center coffee table set of 4 items featuring natural quartzities and solid brass plate in aged finish. “No man is an island entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.” The phrase “no man is an island” expresses the idea that human beings do badly when isolated from others and need to be part of a community in order to thrive. Exactly, like our new piece of art called THE EPICURE which could not present its beauty by itself. Only with the help of the other elements reveals the one complete part; one amazing complete “island.” Luxury doesn’t always follow the common patterns. Luxury goes beyond and almost like one of the best gourmets joins varied experiences, ingredients, recipes into one. Following this idea, we have selected the unique volcanic materials such as Brazilian Quartzites: Infinity, Venom, Super White and one of a kind Brazilian Marble: Invisible Grey. Satin finish highlights the irregular shapes, veins and and the pits of the stone elements designed by the mother nature. The solid brass plates in “Antique Gold” finish as the perfect fundaments of the stone table tops...

Vintage Coffee Tables and Cocktail Tables for Sale: Shop Mid-Century Coffee Tables, Travertine Coffee Tables and Marble Cocktail Tables on 1stDibs
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 — shop Art Deco coffee tables, travertine coffee tables and other antique and vintage coffee tables and cocktail tables today.
