About the Item

This unique sculpted coffee table, designed and created by artist Dedalo Montali in Italy during the 1970s, is a striking piece of functional art. The table features a solid pine wood base with a beautifully abstract shape that presents a different visual experience from every angle.

Its unique design and superb craftsmanship make it a standout piece in any setting. In very good original condition, it reflects the artistry and creativity of Dedalo Montali, making it a highly desirable addition to any collection. The pine wooden base of this coffee table, composed of meticulously glued parts, showcases a fascinating dimension when viewed from the sides. The table has a gentle, original patina that adds to its charm, while the glass top remains in excellent condition. Dedalo Montali (1909-2001), an influential Italian artist of the 1970s, is renowned for his innovative work in both painting and sculpture. Born in Italy, Montali displayed an early talent for art, which he developed through formal education and participation in vibrant artistic communities. In the 1970s, Montali worked in Torino, sharing an atelier with renowned sculptor Nerone Ceccarelli. His style bears a resemblance to the NP2 designs, known for their innovative and abstract forms. This period marked significant growth in his artistic style, characterized by abstract, fluid forms and meticulous craftsmanship. His sculptural works, especially those in pine wood, are notable for their dynamic shapes and intricate construction, often incorporating glass elements for a modern touch. Montali's art, reminiscent of the NP2 design aesthetic, blends natural inspiration with contemporary design. His pieces, both functional and visually striking, reflect his belief that art should integrate seamlessly into everyday life. Montali's legacy continues to inspire contemporary artists, and his works remain highly valued by collectors for their unique combination of abstract beauty and practicality.
