Adrian Pearsall Cast Resin Brutalist Dining Table, 1960's

Designed by the legendary Adrian Pearsall, this brutalist dining table base was his answer to Evans’ high-end, sculptural designs—because not everyone could afford a one-of-a-kind welded masterpiece straight from the PE workshop. But let’s be clear: just because it was designed to be more affordable doesn’t mean it isn’t a total showstopper.

This H-shaped base is dripping in swirls, stars, and almost tribal-looking motifs, all cast in a gray-silver resin that’s been applied over a wooden frame. The result? A textural, sculptural masterpiece that looks like it was excavated from the ruins of some futuristic, mid-century utopia.

Here’s where it gets even better: this particular table has been customized with steel rods, professionally inserted and sunken into the base to loft the glass tabletop, giving it a floating effect that is straight-up sorcery. It’s light, airy, and a serious upgrade from its original design. (We can have these professionally removed and patched to be unnoticeable if wanted, but we think it looks fabulous).

Dining Table or Console? You Decide. The client we purchased this from used it as a console table, proving its versatility. But if you’re ready to bring back its dining table glory, we’ve got you covered—we have larger and thicker glass tabletops available for free to give it the grandeur it deserves. Just shoot us a message and we can go over sizes.

Who Was Adrian Pearsall?
If you don’t already know Adrian Pearsall, allow us to introduce you. A mid-century design icon, he was known for his wildly sculptural furniture—think swooping walnut sofas, atomic-age coffee tables, and dramatic seating that makes your average mid-century chair look like it needs a personality transplant. He founded Craft Associates in the 1950s and quickly became a household name in American modernism.

And Speaking of Paul Evans…
Paul Evans was the mad scientist of mid-century brutalism, merging furniture and sculpture into a genre-defying art form. His welded steel, sculpted bronze, and hand-patinated furniture from the 1960s and ‘70s are still some of the most coveted pieces in the collector world. Evans’ work was brutal, organic, and futuristic all at once, and it makes sense that Pearsall took notes from his playbook when designing this table.

This isn’t just a table. It’s mid-century design history. It’s functional sculpture. It’s a conversation piece that says, “Yes, I have impeccable taste”. Whether you use it as a console, a dining table, or the world’s most extravagant display pedestal for your collection of rare objets d’art, this Pearsall creation will bring bold, brutalist energy to any space.

And let’s be honest—how often do you get a table that looks like it belongs in both a James Bond villain lair and an Architectural Digest spread?

The answer? Not often.
