About the Item

Very nice and versatile dry bar coffee table by Cesare Augusto Nava, Italy 1970. This recognizable almost constructivist coffee table has an amazing design. The piece is different from every side and has many hidden and visible functions. Which makes this a very interesting and versatile piece. It is painted in off white which is still the original finish, and the details, handles and strips are made of aluminium. They are a nice detail to the aesthetics from this piece. The table has a sliding top where you can put bottles in the centre part, a folding drop-down door, drawer, space for glasses. So, this is a perfect piece to use as a dry bar if wanted. The table is very similar to the famous revolving bookcase by Salocchi and he also made some tables which are similar in design to this piece. It surely is a very nice and interesting piece of Italian design. The table is in original condition and shows normal user signs to the white finish. In our opinion this only adds character to the piece, however this can be restored upon request. Nava’s training was forged by the great architect Gio Ponti, in fact thanks to him his creations were defined and cared for in every detail.

Giulio Lazzotti Megeia coffee table pair Italy 1979
By Giulio Lazzotti
Located in Roosendaal, Noord Brabant
Nice pair of coffee tables by Gulio Lazzotti and manufactured by Megeia, italy 1979. The base consists of four marble columns with beautiful cut lining. Three black and one white. Two black columns are shaped like half a cylinder. The other two are two cylinders with a diameter which perfectly fits in the half parts, a nice visual detail. The bases can be put in a playful position to your wishes. The large square tops are from thick glass. The tables are in excellent condition. Priced and sold in a set of 2. This Postmodern design resembles the relationship between ancient masonry skills and applying these traditions in modern forms. Like some other Italian designers, Lazzotti in particular has an innovative approach towards experimenting with form, especially in stone and marble, and applying these mainly into tables. Giulio Lazzotti is an Italian designer and architect who has always given an important place to objects’s sculptural dimension. A great lover of marble, his work is modern, reconciliating a sense of craftsmanship with industrial production. Often hired as a consultant for his experience, Giulio shares his attention to detail throughout the world and collaborates with major furniture brands. The name of the town where Giulio Lazzotti lives and works, Pietrasanta, can be alternately translated as Saint Peter or “holy stone,” the latter being wholly appropriate for a designer and architect whose work in marble, metal and wood takes on a serene, sculptural presence. Lazzotti was educated at the prestigious University of Florence, where he later returned to teach architecture. Since 1975, Lazzotti has maintained a diverse practice encompassing architecture, interior design and furniture design, winning such awards as first prize for Design at the Moving Fair of Paris, the Torre Guinigi prize in Lucca for Urban Design for the historical center of Pietrasanta, a top ten in the International Chair...
