Roberto Monsani Square Grid Coffee Table in Black and Steel, Italy, 1970s
About the Item
Roberto Monsani Square Grid Coffee Table in Black and Steel, Italy, 1970s
This striking square coffee table, designed by Italian architect Roberto Monsani in the 1970s, exemplifies his refined architectural sensibility and commitment to geometric clarity. The piece features a distinctive grid or chessboard configuration—a visual motif characteristic of the decade—executed in an elegant composition of lacquered wood and staggered steel plates.
Measuring 140 cm x 140 cm with a height of 30 cm, the table offers a generous and sculptural presence. The relief of the steel plates above the black lacquered base creates dimensionality, casting subtle shadows that enhance its minimalist silhouette.
The table is presented in its original vintage condition, with visible signs of use and age-related patina, which we find adds to its authenticity and charm. Restoration can be arranged upon request, though we appreciate the honest wear that tells the story of its era.
This is a rare and collectible example of 1970s Italian design—functional, sculptural, and effortlessly sophisticated. Ideal for collectors, architects, and design enthusiasts seeking a piece that bridges Brutalist rigor with refined modernism. It pairs beautifully with both contemporary and mid-century interiors, offering timeless presence and architectural depth.
