Coffee Table with Y-Frame by A.A. Patijn for Zijlstra Joure

This beautiful coffee table was designed by the Hungarian designer Peter Ghyczy in the 1980s. The table consists of a 30 mm thick glass plate that rests on a stainless steel frame. This frame is made of a continuous square tube of 4 x 4 cm. Both the legs and the resting points on which the table top rests are decorated with gold-coloured details. The resting points are depicted as little monks holding up the table top. The model of the table is T29 and comes from the Biri series, named after Ghyczy's nanny.
