This rare coffee table was probably manufactured in Belgium during the 1970s. It is a piece of furniture with an original character. The top is composed of eighteen ceramic tiles featuring a hand-painted, abstract pattern in intense shades of orange, beige, and deep brown. The pattern evokes the artistic expression of modernist ceramicists' studios. Dynamic lines, contrasts, and organic forms make each tile resemble an individual work of art. The chrome base, with its light, geometric design, perfectly complements the Mid-Century Modern style, adding a touch of lightness and elegance. Stylistically, the table draws inspiration from the work of Juliette Belarti, a Belgian designer active in the mid-20th century, known for her unique furniture with ceramic tops that combine functionality with artistic expression. The aesthetics and craftsmanship strongly suggest her influence. The table will fit perfectly into many settings, serving as both a functional piece and a powerful decorative element. The table is in original vintage condition and shows minor signs of age-related wear. The colours of the products shown in the photos may differ slightly from the actual ones. This is due to individual monitor settings and lighting conditions – the photos were taken in artificial light, which may affect the perception of colours. However, we strive to ensure that the photos reflect the actual appearance of the product as faithfully as possible. The offer may include photos of the item in a living space, but these are for illustrative purposes only.
