Description

Set of three nesting natural stone mosaic side tables on alternating heights. The tables are inlaid with unpolished textural stone in earth colors and pieces of brass and copper. The robustness and power of the dark natural materials, combined with the almost serene composition gives this very nice table a warm Ambience. A bit like removing the power of the earth in the house.

These tables are on three different heights; 13,7" (35 cm) -15,3" (39 cm) - 16,1" (41 cm) so that one fits partly under the other like a nest.
And 3 varying sizes of the top 23,6" x 23,6" (60 x 60 cm) -27,6 x 27,6" "(70 x 70 cm) - 39,3" x 39,3 (100 x100 cm)

Designed by the Dutch sculptor, mosaic artist and painter Kingma, The Hague 1913-2003 and manufactured by Kneip 1998.
The heavy weighted tops fit loosely in to wooden bases and are separated for shipping.
