About the Item

With its distinctive structure, this table epitomizes the search for new systems of joinery during the mid-century era, when material and design became the lead factors in achieving stability, durability, and of course, an aesthetically pleasing outcome. Without heavy ornamentation, the viewer's eyes fall on the beautiful silhouette and quality materials. From the use of wood to the Formica top, the piece shows intention and proves experienced cabinetmaking. The use of Formica, a hard plastic laminate, gained popularity in the mid-20th century and continues to capture the attention of interior designers and design enthusiasts today. Moreover, the wood base is sculpted to perfection, the level of woodwork and precise joinery technique greatly shows off the skills of the craftsman, as the separated wooden parts appear to flow into each other effortlessly. The overall form of the table has a light and airy feel, enhancing the mid-century modern aesthetic. With its elegant shape and careful design, this piece rises above the endless passing of trends, establishing itself as a modern classic in the realm of interior design. Like most mid-century pieces, this table is sure to enhance the daily lives of its users through its visually pleasing and functional design that is timeless in every sense of the word.
