Pair of Travertine Coffee Tables, Italy, 1970s
Coming soon
A rare set of two travertine coffee tables from Italy, dating to the 1970s. Each table rests on a cylindrical pedestal base, supporting a perfectly balanced round top in solid 3 cm travertine. Their different heights (60 × 28 cm and 60 × 23 cm) create a natural dialogue, allowing them to be used as a sculptural pair or individually.
The stone’s exceptional veining distinguishes this set: soft ivory tones cut with fluid, organic lines that shift with the light. Far from decorative excess, the design is stripped back to the essentials, letting the material’s inherent beauty command attention.
These tables embody the 1970s Italian approach to design, purity of form, material integrity, and architectural presence, qualities that continue to resonate with contemporary interiors. For today’s collectors and leading designers, such pieces offer both historical value and timeless versatility, equally suited to refined residential settings or curated gallery spaces.
Measurements:
60 × 28 cm
60 × 23 cm
