About the Item

This coffee table designed by Willy Ballez, is crafted in his own atelier in Belgium in 1979. It stands as a truly remarkable piece that embodies the inspiration of Constructivist design. Known for his innovative use of materials and bold architectural forms, Ballez created this table with a solid marble frame that evokes a sense of strength and solidity. The frame is carefully constructed to emphasize clean lines and geometric shapes, a hallmark of Constructivism. The solid marble gives the piece an air of sophistication and durability, while the rectangular glass top adds a touch of contemporary elegance. The juxtaposition of the heavy marble base and the light, transparent glass creates a balanced aesthetic that is both modern and timeless. This coffee table has a unique provenance, having been purchased together with a dining table by Willy Ballez from the first owner, a piece that was sold a few years ago. This shared history adds to the table's allure, suggesting that it was part of a coordinated set designed to elevate any interior space. The table is in very good original condition, a testament to its quality and the care it has received over the years. Despite its age, there is no significant wear or damage, making it a rare find for collectors and design enthusiasts alike. Ideal for a range of settings, from modern living rooms to stylish office spaces, this coffee table by Willy Ballez offers a unique blend of artistry and practicality. Its robust marble frame with a slightly pink tan and sleek glass top ensure that it will remain a focal point for years to come, while its design heritage makes it a conversation piece that will impress guests and connoisseurs of design.
