This Italian coffee table from the 1970s embodies the essentials of mid-century modern design through a clear, architectural approach. Its square silhouette—measuring 70 x 70 cm and standing 60 cm high—rests on slender but solid legs, constructed from parallel profiles of chrome-plated steel and highly polished brass that encircle both the tabletop and each of the four corners. The transparent, toughened glass top features subtly polished edges and sits securely within the precisely engineered metal frame. Chrome injects a cool, mirror-like shine, while brass adds warmth and depth, creating a timeless dialogue between contrasting materials. The entire table is free from visible joints or screws, and the disciplined proportions reflect the rigor of Italian design in this era. The item is in very good condition: no visible defects or significant signs of wear, with all elements retaining their original finish. The table gives voice to the Italian modernism of the 1970s—a period when functional rigour and geometric clarity mirrored the optimism of postwar Europe. Shifting reflections across the metal and glass surfaces evoke a spirit of daring and lightness unique to Italian design—one that delights in contrast and celebrates the lustre of contemporary materials. It is as if the piece were proclaiming that furniture should not only serve a practical function, but also play an assertive part in the everyday stage set. This coffee table may be placed in a living room inspired by mid-century modern or Italian modernism, and would pair well with a cube-shaped sofa, a leather armchair on chrome runners, or a sideboard raised on slender legs. It can be matched with a minimalist metal lamp or a Murano glass vase. In a collector’s interior, it would work beside a large, geometric rug or against light walls, where reflected light in the metal would highlight the purity of the entire arrangement.
