Description

This is a custom-designed minimalist coffee table, featuring an impressive slab of fine Spanish Emperador Marble which is perched atop a welded and hand polished stainless-steel frame. It was designed in ca. 1965 by Davis Allen and Gordon Bunshaft on behalf of the architectural firm Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill (SOM). Bunshaft was a leading force in the architecture and design world. Davis Allen worked closely with and under Bunshaft to execute bespoke furniture like this for special SOM projects. This piece came from upstate New York along with two other notable SOM-Designed works.

This table measures 27.5 inches deep, 27.5 inches wide, and 15 inches high. The marble is truly breathtaking, though it does have some small nips at its corners, as photographed. There is also some light scratching on the top. Both the marble and the legs may be polished and masterfully repaired upon request. Overall, this table is in good vintage condition with small signs of use.

What is Freight shipping?

Freight shipping is how most furniture is shipped: secured by hand on a pallet and transported on a truck.

Furniture arrives curbside, often on the shipping pallet for protection.

Freight shipments can take longer and are more costly than regular mail, but help to prevent damage to furniture during delivery.
