About the Item

Very nice 'Comete' coffee table designed by Patrice Maffei and produced in France by Kappa in 1971. The base is made of stainless steel and is still in a very good condition. The shape itself looks really clean and the curves are smoothly bent sheets of brushed stainles steel that have been put together, there are no signs of joints. This nice shape can be seen from all over, since it has a glass top which is also in a very good condition. No marks of wear can be seen, and the combination of materials really give that space age feeling, which is typical for the ethos of Patrice Maffei. In the 1970's Kappa, in collobaration with various designers, produced  designs that are very characteristic for the groundbreaking progress in space age furniture of that time.

Brazilian Modern Coffee Table "Acqua" in Wood & Glass, Giuseppe Scapinelli, 1955
By Giuseppe Scapinelli
Located in New York, NY
Available today, this one-of-a-kind Brazilian Modern coffee table model ACQUA made in Ebony wood and glass by Giuseppe Scapinelli, 1950s, Brazil is nothing less than spectacular. There are three reasons why this iconic piece is so special: First, the coffee table (swivel structure and glass) haven't been altered. This specific design is very fragile resulting in very few of these existing today in its original shape. The wood has only been repainted and the glass has a couple of dents but besides that, the coffee table is in excellent condition. Second, this iconic design is one of Scapinelli most renowned, appearing in countless publications, such as Casa e Jardim publications (Brazil House & Garden) as well as Giuseppe Scapinelli’s book (images attached). Attached images Lastly, the piece is truly a masterpiece of design. The organic shape of the base truly evokes its name ACQUA (water in Italian) and the base can swivel on its axis changing dramatically in appearance looking like a different piece. The coffee table is showcased in our showroom next to a pair of Carlo Hauner armchairs, a Jorge Zalszupin Pullman Sofa...
