Table Vittorio Gregotti, Lodovico Meneghetti, Giotto Stoppino, unique piece
Located in Milano, IT
Beautiful round table designed by three great designers Vittorio Gregotti, Lodovico Meneghetti and Giotto Stoppino, of fine Italian manufacture from the 1950s. UNIQUE PIECE. The table is made entirely of wood with hard, outlined geometric shapes. The table top has a wonderful round shape, with the wood grain evident and very clear, very elegant. Its uniqueness can be seen at the height of the legs: each leg is composed of two structures that connect with each other creating a wonderful play of geometric shapes that are very eclectic. These legs create the geometric figure of a well-defined pentagon; each leg in fact has a small wooden structure that connects them to each other, going to define the perimeter of the form. The pentagon is also present below the top, although not visible because it is covered. The original design drawing...

Antique and Vintage Dessert Tables and Tilt-Top Tables

In preparing for your next holiday party or dinner party, an antique or vintage dessert table might just be the perfect finishing touch.

Dessert tables are elegant pieces essential for hosting both formal and casual gatherings. Also known as tilt-top tables or loo tables (named for the card game), these eye-catching furnishings make it easy to host large parties so that guests are not confined to a single space for the night. The top of a tilt-top table is typically hinged to a pedestal in the structure’s center so that its surface can be turned from a horizontal to a vertical position and parked in the corner of a living room or dining room. This gives it an advantage over a traditional side table and allows it to take up less space when it’s not in use.

Dessert tables are deliberately built small or narrow so that they are easy to maneuver. These compact tables were especially prominent in the 18th century in the United States and England where they regularly accompanied social interactions like tea drinking. During the early 1920s, the sterling-silver full tea service and tray designed by Tiffany & Co. set atop your dessert table might include a hot-water kettle on a stand, a coffeepot, a teapot, a creamer with a small lip spout, a waste bowl and a bowl for sugar, which the British were stirring into tea by the 1720s and ’30s.

Older dessert tables often feature intricate carvings and motifs, making them enduringly popular through the decades. Many tilt-top tables likewise have elaborate veneers for a decoration that can be viewed when they are tilted down and stored against a wall.

Find antique and vintage tilt-top tables and dessert tables in various styles and finishes on 1stDibs.
