About the Item

This exquisite goatskin table exemplifies Aldo Tura's masterful blend of Italian craftsmanship and mid-century modern design. Measuring an impressive 76 inches in length by 44 inches in width, this substantial dining table commands attention in any room, with the added versatility of a 21-inch leaf that extends the surface to accommodate larger gatherings. The rich, chocolate-brown goatskin surface showcases the natural grain and texture that made Tura's work so distinctive, with each hide carefully selected and hand-applied to create a luxurious, tactile finish across the table's generous proportions. The seamless integration of the extension leaf demonstrates Tura's commitment to both form and function, ensuring the goatskin treatment remains consistent whether the table is in its standard configuration or fully extended. The table features Tura's signature parchment and lacquer treatment, where the goatskin is meticulously stretched and adhered to the underlying structure, then finished with his proprietary lacquering technique that both protects the material and enhances its natural beauty. The surface develops a subtle patina over time, adding to its character and appeal. True to Tura's aesthetic philosophy, the piece balances organic materials with clean, geometric lines. The table's substantial dimensions reflect the sophisticated restraint of 1950s Italian design, while the goatskin upholstery adds warmth and texture that contrasts beautifully with the period's typically sleek surfaces. The extension mechanism is engineered with the same precision as the surface treatment, ensuring smooth operation and structural integrity. The craftsmanship extends to every detail, from the precisely mitered edges where the goatskin meets to the carefully finished underside. This attention to detail exemplifies why Tura's work remains highly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts who appreciate furniture that functions as both practical object and sculptural art piece. This table represents a perfect example of how Tura elevated everyday materials into objects of enduring elegance, combining traditional Italian leather-working techniques with modernist design principles to create pieces that feel both timeless and distinctly of their era.
