A richly patinated iron coffee table, likely dating from the mid-20th century, with a simple rectangular top raised on slender cylindrical legs and crossed stretchers beneath.
The surface is what makes it. Years of oxidation have developed into a dense, mottled patina ranging from deep brown and black to flashes of rust and burnt orange. The metal has been treated to stabilise the surface and given an oiled finish, deepening these tones and bringing out the variation across the top.
Despite the richness of its surface, the construction remains spare: four straight legs, simple ring details and an X-frame meeting at the centre.
Height: 42cm
Length: 110cm
Width: 70cm
Collection from Brixton, London or arranged delivery.
