the table exhibits scarpa's typical interplay of structural clarity and sculptural presence: four cylindrical legs made of chrome-plated steel support a geometrically structured frame grid that elegantly and seemingly floats above the heavy glass top.

the cross joints are precisely executed, the transitions between round and flat steel are carefully crafted and accentuated with leather-covered inserts at the connection points.

the structure of the table embodies the technical aesthetic of the late 1960s – a time when transparency, material integrity, and industrial manufacturing quality characterized modern living.

the interplay of glass and chrome creates a clear, almost architectural effect, making the table appear both as a functional piece of furniture and as a sculptural object.

condition: the table is in good, authentic condition with normal signs of wear. The chrome shows slight scratches and dull spots in places, and the glass top has fine surface scratches, but these barely affect the overall appearance. Overall, a very well-maintained and collectible original piece with a beautiful patina.
