European Side Table with Sculptural Legs, Europe ca 1960s

Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
European designers’ predilection for curvilinear shapes and certain woods, often oak, is evident in this coffee table’s sinuous rectangular top and sculptural lower structure. The design balances large volumes with clean geometrical lines and the result is distinctive with visible quality.

The mid-century pieces that appeal to most are the models that were designed with both nature and function in mind, for the sheer fact that they seem completely contemporary and undated. This side table, is on par with the famous Scandinavian or French models of the era, and is exceptional on its own merit. This piece was created with considerable technical expertise and holds a natural expression with its airy and organic design, which is dominated by the unique legs. The flowing and curving legs meet in the middle, where a solid wood cuboid serves as the centrepiece. The hand carved rectangular tabletop has gently rounded edges and showcases the solid wood’s beautiful pattern. The simple look serves the purpose of showing off the legs’ eye-catching design. The cabinetmaker’s expertise can be easily traced in the carvings and in the legs’ joinery techniques.

The understated beauty of the wood and its endless possibilities under the hands of an expert craftsman give this table its charm. Its unique lower structure makes it ideal to stand as an accent table, but it is also perfect to complement almost any style of space.
