Adrian Pearsall "Stingray" Side Tables for Craft Associates

Creator: Adrian Pearsall
Offered by: Danish Modern LA

Description
This pair of Adrian Pearsall “Stingray” side tables for Craft Associates exemplifies mid-century modern design with dynamic organic form and sculptural presence. The sculpted wood bases flow with sinuous contours that echo natural forms, while the floating tops appear to hover effortlessly above, creating a striking visual interplay of positive and negative space. Crafted with meticulous attention to materiality and proportion, these tables balance strong architectural lines with sensuous curves. Their rich walnut tones and sculptural silhouettes make them equally compelling as a pair or as individual statement pieces in living areas, lounges, or modern interiors. Expertly refinished to highlight the depth of the wood grain and finished surfaces, these tables offer both form and function in one timeless package.

Fun Historical Fact
Adrian Pearsall was a pivotal figure in American mid-century modern furniture, celebrated for his expressive, biomorphic forms that broke away from strict orthogonal geometry. In the late 1950s and 1960s, designers like Pearsall embraced nature-inspired shapes — such as the sweeping curves seen in these “Stingray” side tables — as part of a broader cultural shift toward organic modernism. The work of Craft Associates, with whom Pearsall frequently collaborated, was instrumental in bringing bold sculptural design to American homes during this period. Today, original Pearsall pieces are highly sought after for their fusion of artistic creativity and practical design.
