1970s Italian Travertine Round Dining Table
A Sculptural Masterpiece of Postwar Italian Design
This rare round dining table from the 1970s is a masterful expression of Italian postwar design, where architectural clarity and the timeless poetry of natural stone converge. Carved entirely from solid travertine, the piece embodies both monumentality and restrain, an homage to the sculptural ethos that defined the era’s most collectible works.
The expansive circular top, now at a refined 120 cm diameter, rests on a geometric pedestal base that evokes architectural purity while honoring the organic beauty of the material. The slab’s 3 cm thickness reveals delicate tonal stratifications in warm ivory and sand-beige tones, highlighting the natural depth and quiet sophistication inherent to high-quality travertine.
Minimal yet commanding, the table operates simultaneously as a functional dining surface and as a sculptural presence within the room. Its serene palette and soft honed finish allow it to integrate seamlessly into contemporary interiors, while its provenance and materiality make it equally suited for curated design collections.
Rooted in the Italian ethos of the 1970, clarity of form, purity of material, and enduring elegance, this table stands as a timeless object of architectural beauty.
