Italian Fossilized Marble and Mirrored Cocktail Table, circa 1950

Offered by: Babou New York

Description
An exceptional Italian modernist fossilized marble cocktail table. The large polished marble top containing embedded ammonite and orthoceras fossils dating back to the Pre-historic era. The quantity and coloration of the fossils in this marble is spectacular, with beautiful variations of warm grey and brown, generously embedded with cream colored fossils. This stunning top is supported on a base with mirrored apron and squared legs, segmented with walnut. The combination of the fossilized stone, mirrored glass and wood creates a stunning contrast and further highlights the beauty of each of these elements. This is a highly unique and rare artisan hand-made piece, likely commissioned for a private residence.
