About the Item
A striking Swedish pedestal dining table from the 1970s, featuring a unique round, embossed copper top with a warm, inviting patina. This captivating surface rests atop a lighter wood core, bordered by its natural wooden edge, and finished with a practical white laminate on the underside. The table is anchored by an ornate hobnail cast iron tulip base, which has a notable large circular motif and an elegant, almost Brutalist character.
The tabletop is richly detailed with subtle relief patterns, showcasing the artistry of its copper work and beautifully framed by the visible wood trim. The substantial cast iron base provides a strong visual foundation with its sculptural form, while its distinctive hobnail accents and circular motif add compelling texture. For enhanced stability, a 1/4" thick square plate was added under the table top by the previous owner.
In original condition with visible wear consistent with its age and use, this Swedish table retains all the charm and integrity of its vintage origins. Its bold mix of diverse materials—copper, light wood, laminate, and iron—blends artistry and function, creating a truly unique and commanding centerpiece for any dining area or creative workspace.
More to the Story...
The 1970s represented a fascinating period in Swedish design, moving beyond strict minimalism to embrace richer textures, mixed materials, and an undeniable artistic presence. This distinctive pedestal table is a prime example of this evolution, showcasing a remarkable blend of craftsmanship and bold aesthetics.
The tabletop's construction is a study in contrasting elements: an embossed copper surface develops a unique, ever-evolving patina, resting on a lighter wood core with a visible natural edge, and an unexpected yet practical white laminate underside. This thoughtful combination speaks to both durability and design ingenuity. The table is anchored by a formidable cast iron base, whose ornate hobnail details and large circular motif contribute to its unique character. This base bears a striking resemblance to some Tapiovaara "Caribe" table bases, although this specific copper top has not yet been found in conjunction with that known design. Its "almost Brutalist" character provides a strong visual foundation, making the table not just a functional piece, but a sculptural statement that encapsulates the era's adventurous spirit in design.
