Vintage Italian Carrara Marble Rectangular Coffee Table, 1970s
This vintage Italian coffee table from the 1970s is crafted entirely in solid Carrara marble — and distinguished within the VV Interior Home collection by its format: an elongated rectangular top of 180 × 50 cm resting on two monumental block legs, a structural solution that emphasizes horizontal mass and architectural weight over lightness or fragility.
The luminous white surface of the Carrara marble, enhanced by dramatic grey veining, reveals the full chromatic range of one of Italy's most celebrated stones. At 2 cm thick, the top has a refined, almost graphic quality — the veining reads as drawing across the surface rather than as texture. The two block legs introduce a sense of permanence and solidity that transforms the table from a functional object into an architectural element.
At 180 cm in length and 43 cm in height, the piece functions as a generous coffee table but also as a room-defining object — one that establishes the scale and material register of the entire space it inhabits. Minimalist in form, monumental in presence.
A well-proportioned and materially resolved example of Italian postwar stone design — particularly rare at this length and in this structural format.
Year: 1970s Origin: Italy Material: Solid Carrara marble — white with grey veining Measurements: 180 × 50 × 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.
