It retains its original 1970s label, a true mid-century style and era.
this is one of the most iconic and elegant pieces of 20th-century italian design, a sophisticated and timeless console table with a strong visual impact and an organic, narrative-driven design aesthetic. Its "eros" name refers to its sophisticated gravity-based mounting system. The top of the console remains stable on its truncated conical legs without the need for joints. Installation is achieved through a tongue-and-groove joint that allows for a clean and precise fit. A brilliant and sophisticated design.
with original label guaranteeing its authenticity and period.


the eros console culminates mangiarotti's research into impressive balancing structures. The gravity joints are special, each carefully calculated to ensure the tapered legs securely hold the tabletop in place.
