Glass Top Rectangular Dining Table with Asymmetric Angled Lucite Pedestal Bases

Step into a world where function becomes sculpture. This captivating dining table, sculpted from crystalline Lucite, commands presence through its transparent minimalism and architectural finesse. At its visual core, a diamond-shaped acrylic prism—impeccably faceted—catches and fractures ambient light, transforming each ray into a shimmering visual performance, as if the table itself were alight from within. Rising from its pedestal base composed of intersecting acrylic planes, a 54-inch diameter tempered-glass top crowns the piece. Its beveled, polished edge enhances the sensation of a floating orb—an optical marvel suffused with both lightness and solidity.The structure measures approximately 29 inches high, with the base itself at 28.5 inches tall and a form that balances both sturdy support and visual subtlety. The craftsmanship—while not attributed to a signature designer—recalls postmodern luminaries, akin to Charles Hollis Jones prototypes, where acrylic becomes both structure and spectacle. In natural or gallery lighting, the prism center dances—refracting and echoing each surrounding tone, making the table not merely a surface, but a choreographed experience in transparency. Though vintage wear is present—light scratching on the glass and minor signs upon close inspection of the Lucite—these blemishes speak to the table’s lived history, adding character without undermining its elegance. This table is ideal for collectors drawn to objects that blur the line between art and utility, for designers seeking sculptural showpieces that anchor a room without weighing it down, or for architectural interiors aiming to turn dining into an act of curated light and space.

An architectural marvel in living form, this Cocobolo rosewood dining table by Don S. Shoemaker for Señal, Mexico, commands attention as both functional object and sculptural statement. The table’s resolutely modern silhouette—its geometric facets crafted from staved Cocobolo slats—reveals a painterly interplay of deep chocolate tones and fiery grain, each plane aligned to celebrate the wood’s inherent drama. The hexagonal—or subtly offset—top appears as if carved from a single, shifting block, perched atop a dynamic pedestal that seems to defy gravity with its angular geometry and counterbalance. Lovingly restored by in-house artisans, the surface bears a seamless patchwork of rosewood that evokes the finest parquetry, each segment chosen for contrast and continuity. Its pedestal—masterfully hollowed to allow surprising lightness—locks effortlessly into place with an ingenious rail-and-notch system, free of bolts or screws, ensuring both stability and ease of placement. This piece exudes the charisma of mid-century Mexican modernism, where brutalist intensity meets refined craftsmanship. Measuring approximately 96 inches in width by 53½ inches in depth and standing 30¼ inches high, it offers an expansive platform without overpowering space—a stage for grand conversation or quiet majesty. Don S. Shoemaker, born in Nebraska and educated at the Art Institute of Chicago, found his true creative voice only upon settling in Mexico after his honeymoon. There, amid the luminous landscapes of Michoacán, he founded Señal S.A., turning tropical hardwoods into modernist treasures. His Diamond Line and “Z”-shaped forms, constructed in cocobolo and other precious woods, remain a rare and influential chapter in 20th-century design. Wanna be a bond villain in real life?

The grain and color tones vary in each slat to create a stunning visual contrast throughout. The pedestal and top separate easily without any screws or bolts. The table top has a grid-work of rails underneath that sink into corresponding notches on the base. The base is brilliantly assembled with a hollow interior to keep the weight to a minimum.

During the 1930s, he studied at the Art Institute of Chicago. In the late 1940s, he married and subsequently, on his honeymoon, fell in love with Mexico. He loved the country so much that later in the 1940s, he moved to Mexico with his wife. Shoemaker lived and painted in a town called Santa Maria de Guido, overseeing the City of Morelia in Michoacán. Don and his wife Barbara lived in harmony with nature, growing many rare plants in their greenhouse. Don became inspired by the tropical woods of Mexico and began to manufacture furniture from these precious timbers. What began as a small factory in the late 1950s became known as Señal S.A and grew to where Don employed more than a hundred skilled artisans. Soon he became an important figure in the economic and cultural life of his adopted town. Señal S.A brought new wealth and an economic boost to the town, and Dom was known for his warm and charitable heart. The furniture designed for Señal S.A by Don were modern interpretations of traditional Mexican furnishings. Many of his iconic designs were inspired by traditional Mexican woodwork. The pieces made from Cocobolo, a Mexican rosewood, and other precious woods were highly sought after. The furniture was exported to showrooms in Chicago, Los Angeles, Houston, and large Mexican cities. His designs were liked very much by wealthy Mexican families...
