G-Plan Teak “Tulip” Glass Coffee Table, 1970s

About the Item

This stylish coffee table is a prime example of the 1970s' flair for combining organic forms with modern materials, creating functional pieces of art. Designed by G Plan in the UK, this 'tulip' table is a celebration of the era's innovative furniture design. The structure of the table is crafted from bent plywood, a technique that allows for graceful curves and seamless lines. The use of plywood is enhanced by the rich teak veneer, providing the appearance of solid wood while ensuring flexibility and durability. Teak, with its golden-brown hue and straight grain, was a highly favored material in the '70s, valued for its long-lasting quality and aesthetic appeal. A transparent glass top rests elegantly upon the wooden frame, giving a sleek surface that beautifully showcases the teak's warm tones beneath it. The transparency of the glass adds a light, airy feel to the piece, ensuring that it doesn't overwhelm the space while still making a design statement. Below the glass top lies a substantial base shelf, offering additional storage space and reinforcing the table's functionality. The inclusion of chrome finishes adds a touch of shine and modernity, contrasting with the natural wood elements. Completing the design, the coffee table is mounted on castors, which glide smoothly for easy relocation. This practical feature underscores the table's versatility and adaptability to different living spaces. Overall, this G Plan 'tulip' coffee table encapsulates the spirit of 1970s design, where the elegance of natural materials met the sophistication of modern finishes, resulting in pieces that were both beautiful and utilitarian.
