Afra & Tobia Scarpa Midcentury Squared Wood Italian Coffee Table, 1970s

About the Item

Incredible midcentury squared solid wood coffee table with smoked glass top. It was produced in Italy in the 1970s designed by Afra & Tobia Scarpa. You are going to love the clean lines and the presence of the dark-toned, sexy smoked glass, that match wonderfully with its minimal structure. A very elegant and versatile object that will complete a mid-century living room or kitchen. It can be easily disassembled for packing and shipping. Chic, distinctive, and cool, the work of husband-and-wife-team Tobia and Afra Scarpa has found a new generation of sophisticated admirers in the 21st century. Their designs exhibit a decidedly modernist aesthetic, prioritizing pared-back elegance and comfort. At the same time, the Scarpas are admired for the ease with which their designs complement both classical and cutting-edge interiors. Born in Venice in 1935, Tobia Scarpa is the son of famed architect-designer Carlo Scarpa. Alongside his wife Afra (née Bianchin, born in Montebelluna in 1937), he began working with Venini glassworks in Murano in the 1950s. In 1960, the couple established their design office in Montebelluna. Together, they created works for companies such as Flos, Cassina, B&B Italia, and Knoll. They embraced a variety of materials and expanding technologies across a wide range of designs, from glass, furniture, and lighting to interiors and architecture. During the 1960s, the pair began an ongoing relationship with the Benetton clothing company, which led to a number of different projects, including the first Benetton textile factory in Treviso (1964), as well as interiors for the company’s Paris and Freiburg offices (1980) and New York office (1986). The table will be shipped disassembled (very easy to reassemble it) for greater safety and a lower transport cost. Measures (cms): Width - 48.5 Depth - 48.5 Height - 36.
