About the Item
Jean Claude Dresse, coffee table, stainless steel, agate, resin, wood, Belgium, 1970s
This striking coffee table by Belgian artist-designer Jean Claude Dresse is a masterwork of 1970s design, seamlessly merging sculptural form with fine craftsmanship. The rectangular tabletop is composed of stainless steel, featuring Dresse’s signature etched surface that shimmers with a unique, almost topographic texture. This is creating a mesmerizing interplay of light and reflection.
A particularly captivating detail is the inclusion of agate stones inlaid into the top, embedded within the etched steel surface. The agate adds a rich, organic contrast to the otherwise industrial materials. The geometric base is finished in a deep black, giving the entire piece a bold and grounded presence.
Jean Claude Dresse (1946) is a Belgian artist and designer. He graduated from the art academy in Charleroi. His interest in the visual artist is clearly visible in his furniture designs as he uses artistic techniques such as mosaic and etchings. He makes use of precious metals such as brass and copper. Together with his father he was a prominent figure in the furniture business in the 1980s and he belongs to the artistic Walloon school that focussed on glamorous esthetics. When his father died and the market was more difficult, he could not continue to make the furniture on his own so he became a visual artist. In the 1970s a trend of decorative arts arised in Brussels. Key-designers were Aldo Chale, Georges Mathias, Willy Daro and Lova Creation. Their style was characterized by the use of gemstones as decorative element and the use of gold as primary color. The classical technique of etching was highly applied on their designs for coffee and cocktail tables.
