Sculptural Mahogany dining table Italy 1950s

This stunning dining table, made in Italy during the 1950s, is a quintessential example of mid-century Italian design, marked by its sculptural form and refined craftsmanship. Constructed from solid mahogany, the table’s structure showcases an elegant silhouette that appears almost like a piece of functional art. The frame is visually striking, with pointed feet and a center support bar featuring three oval cut-outs, which introduce a sense of lightness and playful geometry into the overall design. These aesthetic elements are purely decorative, yet they contribute greatly to the table’s unique character.

The rectangular frame supports the original glass top, allowing a clear view of the beautifully crafted base beneath. This open, transparent design not only emphasizes the intricate woodworking but also enhances the sense of space in the room, making the table appear lighter and more modern. The mahogany wood grain, now fully restored, brings out warm tones and depth, enriching the piece with a natural, luxurious finish.

While the designer or manufacturer remains unknown, the quality and artistry suggest it was likely produced in small numbers, possibly by a skilled artisan or workshop. With inspiration drawn from designers in that period as Gio Ponti, Cesare Lacca, Franco Albini and Ico Paris. This dining table stands out as a rare and highly decorative piece, perfect for collectors or admirers of classic Italian mid-century design.
