Melchiore Bega dining table Bologna Italy 1950
About the Item
Extraordinary dining or desk table designed by Melchiorre Bega and manufactured by Vittorio Bega in Bologna, Italy in 1950. This table could perfectly fit in the post-modern era but was made in the 1950s. This shows that Bega was a visionair and it’s not a surprise he worked with the greatest visionair in design an architecture; Gio Ponti. The form of the legs were unique and unlike anything else at that time. Also the top makes this table stand out. It’s an ocean blue/green mirror glass top with a recess in the middle otherwise the top. Here you can see the structure through the mirrored glass. The table is made a of wooden structure with warm wooden veneer. The edges of the wooden structure have a rounded waterfall design. A really modern table for the year it was designed. A similar model can be seen in the archives of Bega. Bega often made unique pieces referring to a previous design and these pieces got more refined every time. The table is in good original condition, corners show surface craquelé in the veneer which is visible on the pictures, but the construction is still super strong and stable. The chairs on the pictures are not included but can be purchased here.
Melchiorre Bega was a prominent figure of 20th century Italian architecture. Whereas the writing of histories has not made him a full-fledged protagonist, still throughout his five-decades-long career he had the occasion to cross and interpret the main movements and ideas of his times – from the 1930s rationalism to the 1950s international style and later on even brutalism, though peripherally – and to get in touch with first-tier intellectuals, such as Gio Ponti.

Edoardo Landi Dining Table Studio D, Italy, 1973
By Edoardo Landi
Located in Roosendaal, Noord Brabant
Architectural dining table model T30 designed by Edoardo Landi and manufactured by Studio D, Italy 1973. This table is designed by Architect Landi in 1973, and was produced in a very small series by StudioD, together with some chairs, cabinets and tables. This table is made of solid pine wood and is stained in black, it has a glass top in the center which gives the table a nice transparent look. This table is a typical architects design, its clearly visible in the way its constructed and shaped. The table is differenly nice from every angle and is very nice in use as well. The middle part is open and can be used to store items, books, or paper work and it will be only visible from the top and sides. The table can be fully dis assembled for safe shipping. This is one of the most stunning tables I have seen recently and reminds a lot of the later designs by Jose Zanine Caldas as well. Documentation is available but not included in the sale. The table can use up to 8 chairs and the chairs on the picture are not included in this listing.

Joaquim Tenreiro round dining table Brazil 1960
By Joaquim Tenreiro
Located in Roosendaal, Noord Brabant
Beautiful and super rare round dining table by Joaquim Tenreiro, Brazil 1960. The precision and attention to detail by Tenreiro are visible in every inch of this creation. Each curve and joint speak of his masterful understanding of the medium, transforming solid wood into an ethereal masterpiece. Made of solid rosewood, the table's thin, round structure gracefully holds a smooth, transparent glass top, allowing to see the beauty of the minimalistic cross base. The legs of this table are slender, accentuating the table's lightness. This incredibly rare dining table by Joaquim Tenreiro goes beyond just being useful. Its design is timeless, giving us a glimpse into the creative mind of a true artist.
