About the Item

Ross F. Littell (July 14, 1924 - April 17, 2000) was an American textile and furniture designer known for his practical, innovative, and minimalist style as part of the Good Design movement of the 1950s. Part of his work is in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, along with the Art Institute of Chicago. In 1960, he moved to Copenhagen and later to Italy, where he worked for European manufacturers such Unika Vaev and DePadova. During this time, Littell focused on developing mathematics-based textiles, along with metal wall hangings that he called “luminars.” He moved back to California in 1995, where he died five years later in Santa Barbara. This particular 'Luar" Coffee Table is quite minimal in its execution and seems to be part of his mathematical work. The chrome frame is still in good condition and the glass is even in excellent condition. The blue glass is very nicely cut as you can see in the pictures. The legs have an opening that give this minimal table just the extra twist that it needs not to be too minimal. The chrome was thoroughly cleaned and the tables both look amazing. Two available!
