About the Item

Rare, stunning, coffee table with book matched quartz top and bronze frame designed by the artist Richard Almond Blow circa 1950's. The table is marked Made In Italy with with his Montici "M" studio mark. Richard Blow was an American artist whose Florentine workshop Montici produced the finest Pietre Dure during the mid 20th century. The Optifico or Museo delle Pietre Dure in Florence now contains a great many of Blow's pictures, the only ones considered worthy to hang with works created before the Medici family disappeared. Other Blow pictures, boxes, obelisks, and tabletops enrich the homes of wealthy collectors and his family all over the world. After completing 1500 of these stone masterpieces Richard passed away in 1992 and his workshop in Santa Margherita a Montici will produce no more of his original designs.
