Italian 1970s Nest of Three Brass Greek Key Side Tables, Beveled Mirror Tops
-
Description
An elegant Italian nest of three side tables from the 1970s, executed in solid square brass rod and distinguished by crisp architectural geometry and refined decorative restraint. The design is defined by precise right angles and linear clarity, complemented by a subtle Greek key–inspired stretcher detail that introduces rhythm while preserving a clean modernist profile.
The frames are constructed from solid square brass rod, not hollow tube, giving the tables notable visual weight and structural integrity. The brass retains a warm, naturally developed patina consistent with age, enhancing the sculptural presence and underscoring the quality of materials and craftsmanship.
Each table retains its original beveled bronze mirror top, an increasingly rare and highly desirable feature. The mirrored surfaces introduce depth and reflectivity, interacting beautifully with the brass framework and adding a luxurious tonal contrast without excessive ornamentation. The beveling is finely executed and uniform across all three tables, confirming originality to the set.
Designed to nest seamlessly, the tables function equally well as a cohesive grouping or as individual side or occasional tables throughout an interior. When nested, the composition reads as a compact architectural form; when separated, each table stands confidently on its own.
A sophisticated example of Italian design from the 1970s, combining precision, material richness, and timeless versatility—well suited to Mid-Century Modern, Hollywood Regency, and contemporary interiors. -
