Each section has its own shade and texture, coming together in a balanced and distinctive composition – a characteristic work by kingma, handcrafted with precision and personality. The tabletop shows a geometric inlay of natural stone in muted tones, terracotta tiles and yellow-green glazed ceramics. Three brass plates – one larger and two smaller – are subtly embedded in the surface. A gear-shaped metal detail with copper-coloured dots enhances the graphic quality of the design. The round top rests on a black metal base made of two half circles. Dimensions: 117 x 31.5 cm (h), tabletop thickness 3.5 cm / 46.1 x 12.4 in (h), top 1.4 in thick. Signed: kingma (see photo). The condition of this table is excellent. It has been carefully preserved for fifty years and shows no damage. The materials have aged beautifully, developing a calm, natural patina that suits the design. This unique composition was purchased in 1975 from gulden interieur on the coolsingel in rotterdam, after an introduction to kingma’s work at the femina household fair.
