Italian Travertine Square Coffee Table — Two Slab Legs, 1970s
This square travertine coffee table, crafted in Italy during the 1970s, presents a clean and direct structural solution — a 67 × 67 cm top supported by two monolithic slab legs that give the piece an open, light-footed silhouette while maintaining the full material weight of solid stone.
The two slab legs create a visual rhythm beneath the top — two vertical planes of travertine that mirror the horizontal slab above, establishing a formal coherence between support and surface. The softly rounded edges of the top introduce a tactile quality that softens the geometry without diminishing the piece's architectural clarity.
The 2 cm travertine displays cream and beige tones with subtle veining — a quiet surface that deepens with proximity and rewards the close attention that a piece of this scale invites. At 67 × 67 × 43 cm, the table is compact and versatile — equally suited as a primary coffee table in a smaller space or as an accent piece in a larger room.
A resolved and formally honest example of Italian postwar stone design — small in footprint, significant in presence.
Year: 1970s Origin: Italy Material: Solid travertine — cream and beige tones Measurements: 67 × 67 × 43 cm · Top thickness 2 cm Condition: Very good for age — natural variations in stone consistent with the material

These are antique pieces and are sold as such. Although VV does its best to highlight major flaws, minor imperfections should be expected reflecting the age and previous use of the piece.
