This coffee table, designed by Heinz Lilienthal in the 1960s, is a hallmark of German mid-century modern design, where a fascination with material and geometry takes center stage. The round tabletop is crafted from glossy white ceramic mosaic, accented with thin, irregular black grout lines that radiate in a dynamic sunburst pattern. Rectangular tiles fan out from the center, while their vertical arrangement along the edge creates a cohesive, rhythmic effect. The table rests on a sturdy three-legged base of chromed metal with a brushed, subtly textured finish, providing stability without visual heaviness. The proportions are carefully balanced: a substantial decorative top contrasts with the minimalist base, resulting in harmonious composition. The table is in good vintage condition, with the ceramic intact and only minor patina on the metal elements, typical for authentic pieces from the era. This piece speaks with the voice of the 1960s and 70s—a time when designers like Lilienthal sought new forms of expression, marrying craftsmanship with modernity. The mosaic surface recalls architectural explorations of light and geometry that defined postwar Europe. Every grout line draws the eye toward the center, suggesting both movement and a quiet rhythm. The ceramic’s sheen catches the light like a sheet of ice, lending clarity and freshness to the interior—a piece equally suited to the salon of an avant-garde architect or a refined 1970s apartment. The Lilienthal table can be paired with upholstered sofas and armchairs of simple lines to highlight its geometric qualities. It would work well with wooden or
