About the Item
Presenting a mesmerizing free-form coffee table crafted by California artisan Craig Lauterbach, signed and dated 1980.
This unique piece embodies the American Studio Craft movement, showcasing Lauterbach's signature style of organic, curvaceous forms that seamlessly blend function with decorative allure. Hand-carved from solid wood and stack-laminated into a seductive shape, this table is a testament to Lauterbach's craftsmanship and technical skill.
The whimsical design features an intricate network of circular openings, highlighting its artistic complexity and visual appeal. Topped with inset glass, the table enhances its organic charm while maintaining an all-wood construction.
Through correspondence with Craig Lauterbach, he confirmed that only approximately 25 of this design was made by himself, from the mid 1970s to the mid 1980s.
A similar example sold at LAMA in 2007 for $11,700.
This California Craftsman freeform cocktail table by Craig Lauterbach would work great in a California Modern, Mid-Century Modern, Space Age Mod, Scandanavian Modern or Danish Modern home or penthouse apartment but could also look fantastic in a Post-Modern, Contemporary or Zen / Minimalism room. Also consider mixing it up in a Traditional, Transitional, Hollywood Regency, Classical or Art Deco room with a splash of juxtaposition. Would also be an apt choice in a commercial project such as a hotel lobby lounge or members club, creative design studio or high-rise executive office.
MEASUREMENTS:
H 15.5" x W 49.25" x D 25.5"
CONDITION:
Glass is slightly raised on one side which causes a very slight wobble (to the glass) when pressure is applied. New glass can be made and the slight wobble can be corrected. Some slight lacquer loss in areas directly underneath the glass where the glass sits and touches the table. Some minor scratches. Overall very attractive and ready for immediate use.
