1970s Minimalist Travertine Coffee Table
This minimalist travertine coffee table from the 1970s embodies the architectural purity and timeless elegance that define collectible Italian stone design. With its rectilinear form and monumental proportions, the piece highlights the natural depth and texture of solid travertine, a stone prized for its subtle tonal variations and enduring strength.
The table’s construction emphasizes clarity and balance: a rectangular top of 8 cm thickness resting on monolithic slab legs. Its low, grounded stance (30 cm height) creates an impression of stability while allowing the natural veining of the travertine to take center stage. Both functional and sculptural, it epitomizes the quiet power of stone furniture, equally suited for refined living spaces, galleries, or architectural interiors.
