Condition

Overall in very good condition. When viewed firsthand, the shape and minimalist design of this table imparts the work with a strong architectonic presence. Within an interior, this piece would be a true statement work. The top with a rich and warm coloration to the wood selection. The top with a few minor surface scratches, minor discolorations and very light surface dirt consistent with age and gentle use. The metal surfaces with minor surface scratches and minor traces of oxidation commensurate with age and gentle use. One of the feet with remnants of old paper label. A stylish table displaying great proportion and elegant shape. A rare opportunity to acquire such a masterwork design by the artists. ---
