ABOUT PRODUCTID 6239
This Italian folding side table, designed in the spirit of 1990s postmodernism, is distinguished by its interplay of matte black and striking chrome accents. The round tabletop is made of laminated wood or MDF with a smooth, satin finish, while the legs are metal—two gently curved and black, and one straight, polished chrome—creating a dynamic, sculptural silhouette. The folding mechanism is topped with a large black sphere, serving both a functional and decorative purpose. Exposed screws and joints emphasize the technical nature of the design, while the table's ability to fold flat allows for easy storage. Its compact and balanced proportions, together with the playful combination of geometric forms and materials, reflect the characteristic Italian postmodernist approach of the 1990s. The table is in very good vintage condition, showing only minor signs of use. This piece tells the story of a decade when designers broke with convention, juxtaposing geometric shapes and bold materials in unexpected combinations. The matte black top and legs evoke minimalist restraint, while the chrome accents reflect light, bringing movement and airiness to the space. The sculptural sphere atop the folding mechanism is a quintessential 1990s gesture—a touch of irony and wit, a sign that design can play with its own seriousness while remaining practical. The side table can be placed next to a sofa or armchair in the living room, where its compact form serves as a handy spot for a book, cup, or lamp. It works well in postmodern or eclectic interiors, or as a striking accent in more subdued, contemporary spaces. Consider pairing it with other geometric forms, 1990s graphic art, or industrial-inspired lighting—
