Modern Abyss World Coffee Table, Artists-Proof Edition in Birch, Oak, Glass
About the Item
The Abyss World is a unique one-off edition of the Abyss Horizon Coffee table by Christoper Duffy for Duffy London. Finished with an oak veneer, the Abyss World is a beautiful statement coffee table and measures 76cm x 40cm. This piece has been exhibited with an art gallery but is in a near perfect condition.
First sketched in 2012, the Abyss aims to represent depth, using layers of wood and sculpted glass to produce a visual effect that’s reminiscent of our perception of water and how we observe its colour transform at different depths.
Glass and wood materials combine to create a three-dimensional viewing canvas; the yellow-tinted wood reacts with the layers of blue glass to produce an array of luxurious turquoise colours – a vivid depiction of the seabed, as if a mythical power had lifted a perfect circle cut straight from the Earth’s crust to use as his own personal ornament.

- 21st Century Birch Wood Coffee Table with Glass Table-top, Artists Proof editionBy Duffy LondonLocated in London, GBDuffy casts an eye downwards – with a captivating modern coffee table design. A deep, turquoise-blue Abyss appears to float effortlessly above free space. This is one of two, unique artist-proof edition pieces available, handmade in the Duffy London studio in East London and complete with etched signature plate from Christopher Duffy. A study of depth and our perception of it, the Abyss Horizon makes use of the interplay between light and layers of the natural Birchwood coloration / marble and sculpted blue glass to forge a mesmerising three-dimensional canvas – reminiscent of our own perception of water, and how we observe its color transform at different depths The perceived change in color, becomes the element that gives true meaning to the piece, conjuring up ideas of a great oceanic topography, and transforming the flowing design into an expressive object. For the 2023 edition, three curved legs support a dramatic, contoured base section that appears to collapse downwards into the floor. The physical space around the edges of the table focuses the senses to enhance our view of a great, floating Abyss, with a colossal sinkhole at its centre. The Abyss is one of Duffy's most acclaimed statement furniture works - a limited edition, collectible design piece. The first ever edition of the Abyss table...Category
