About the Item

Gorgeous and spectacular coffee table, with clean and minimalist lines, is an iconic representation of the design of the 70s, a decade marked by experimentation and the mixing of materials; in this case, burl wood and steel. The union of these materials creates a fascinating contrast between the organic and the industrial. The polished steel reinforces the modernist influence of this decade, evoking a futuristic but sober spirit. It closely follows the designs made by Guy Lefèvre for Mason Jansen, known for their elegance, clean lines, geometric and symmetrical shapes and the fusion of modernism with classical elements. Working for Maison Jansen, Lefevre contributed to the firm's reputation as a leader in luxury interior design. "Root wood" has nothing to do with the root of the tree, but with the deformations that the tissue can undergo along the entire stem. These irregularities that appear in the wood have been the subject of interest in cabinetmaking and have become a highly sought-after part due to their undoubted value, since they are extremely dense and resistant woods. In addition, the whimsical shapes drawn on their surface gave rise to a great appreciation for this material, and sparked great interest within movements such as Art Deco.
