1980s Post Modern Memphis Milano Style Dining Table, Carrara Marble Top

About the Item

This dining table is stunning! A true masterpiece of Memphis Milano styling, drawing inspiration from the iconic designs of Ettore Sottsass, Vico Magistretti, and other members of the influential design collective. The table features a polished steel base that is shaped like a cone, with bold red stripes that add a pop of color and energy to the overall design. The base of the table is reminiscent of the work of designer and architect Michele De Lucchi, who was one of the founding members of the Memphis group. The bold and playful use of color and form is also typical of the Memphis style, which was known for its avant-garde approach to design. The table top is made from white Carrara marble, which is a favorite material of many Memphis designers, including Ettore Sottsass and Marco Zanini. The marble is elegant and refined, providing a beautiful contrast to the playful and bold design of the base. The overall effect of this dining table is one of beauty, elegance, and whimsy, with its Memphis Milano-inspired styling and nods to the works of many famous members of the design collective. Its striking presence and unique design are sure to be a conversation starter at any dinner party, and its timeless appeal ensures that it will remain a treasured piece for many years to come This dining table is photographed with Katavalos, Kelley and Littell T chais in a bold red leather. This dining table would look incredible in any mid century modern, post modern, mod or Memphis Milano styled home or business. It's a bold design choice that can be played up for maximalism, or played down for a more subtle nod to post modern styling.

Postmodern Industrial Dining Table Designed by Robert Josten
By Robert Josten
Located in Culver City, CA
This dining table is equal parts post modern and industrial modern and just oozes California modernism. This dining table or writing desk was designed by Robert Josten in the 1970's. Made of aluminum, this metal grille / grid style is a staple of Robert Josten's work. This dining table is a great transitional piece that could easily flex into any contemporary environment.

Karl Springer Goatskin Dining Table With Custom Chrome Drum Base
By Karl Springer
Located in Culver City, CA
This dining table is simply stunning. A goatskin dining table designed by Karl Springer from the 1980s features a creamy goatskin top with hides that are both tan and nude in color with slight color variations in the hides that only come with real goatskin pieces. This large goatskin top rests on a circular chrome drum base that is a custom base for the table. This stunning table came out of a prominent home in Century City and the provenance is available upon request. The dining table top still has the original Karl Springer paper label which was included in the original wrapping of the piece / order tag, which has been affixed to the bottom by the original owner for provenance. This wrapping tag has significantly faded with time, but you can still make out the name Karl Springer at the top (especially if you snap a photo and bump up the contrast). This dining table, as photographed, looks incredible with the Guido Faleschini for Pace Collection dining chairs -- which is the exact combination the family had been using since the 1980's. With the striking chrome base, this dining table would look great with Milo Baughman thinline...
