This extraordinary Mid-Century Modern mosaic coffee table was designed by the renowned Brazilian designer Percival Lafer circa 1970. This table is constructed of an exotic mixture of hardwoods such as Brazilian Rosewood, Mahogany and Brazilian Jacaranda. Featuring austere waterfall-like legs holding up a volumetric rectangular top and open on two sides with all exterior surfaces covered in a rich mosaic patchwork of multihued mahogany strips creating a stunning and dynamic visual pattern this table is literally unlike any other. The top is fitted with a transparent glass panel, protecting the wood top beneath, while ensuring that it remains visible. With it's clean lines, austere form, and refined palate this piece is as versatile as it is aesthetically compelling, blending perfectly with any style of interior from classic Mid Century Modern to contemporary to brutalism/minimalism. These tables are becoming harder to find as collectors are increasingly drawn to the brutal beauty of the design. Make it yours before it's gone forever. less Wear and tear: glass top has minor chip.
