Desk table Patrice Maffei for Kappa brushed steel smoked glass 1970

About the Item

A rare brushed stainless steel desk table designed by French designer Patrice Maffei for Kappa editor in the 1970s, it features two locking drawers and a grey smoked glass top. Following the 1970s stainless steel trend, led by Maria Pergay, this beautiful “ president ” desk features a steel frame, with ash wood body and drawers covered by stainless steel. The combination of steel and grey smoked glass forms an architectural timeless inspiration. As a fixture in a contemporary space, it would add vintage appeal—a trendy repurposing of a midcentury piece—and a chic elegance. Highly decorative, it’s been fully restored, glass top replaced, and is found in a very good vintage condition, with only few traces of use, and is truly a unique find.

Patrice Maffei Comete coffee table Kappa France 1971
By Patrice Maffei, Kappa
Located in Roosendaal, Noord Brabant
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...
