Fontana Arte fiberglass and glass coffee table model 2542, Italy, 1960s
-
Description
A rare coffee table model 2542 by Fontana Arte combines contrasting yet complementary materials: fiberglass and crystal. This unusual combination, characterized by their plastic versatility, allows for the creation of organic shapes and harmonious curves, representing the pinnacle of a pioneering aesthetic research period.
The table embodies a tight dialogue between the transparent glass material and the fiberglass base. While the crystal stands out for its impalpable transparency, highlighted in contrast with the vibrant red support, the fiberglass is enriched through the reflections of the crystal, lending it a distinctive elegance.
This rare and sought-after piece underscores a precise moment in design history, where non-traditional raw materials, stemming from pioneering research, were beginning to find their place in furnishing. The table is documented with original drawings and photographs in period catalogs, testifying to its significance in the design landscape.
Preserved in excellent vintage condition and authentic in every part, the table measures 114.5 cm in length, 49.5 cm in width, and 37 cm in height, making it not only a prized piece but also functional and suitable for any setting. - More Information
