This Italian travertine coffee table from the 1970s exemplifies the era’s fascination with sculptural geometry and functional innovation. Its rectangular top rests on angled supports, designed not only for visual balance but also for adaptability: the piece features two adjustable height settings, allowing it to transition seamlessly between 43 cm and 23 cm depending on the space and use.
Carved from a 3 cm slab of solid travertine, the tabletop reveals the stone’s signature tonal gradations, from warm ivory to soft sand, enhanced by subtle linear veining. The minimalist form amplifies the inherent beauty of the material, while the architectural base lends both stability and striking presence.
More than a table, this is a modular sculptural element, adaptable to contemporary living spaces and highly valued by collectors and design connoisseurs. Its rare adjustable feature distinguishes it within the landscape of vintage stone furniture, where most pieces are static in form.
