Executed in richly toned Italian walnut and recently restored, it reflects a harmony between architectural precision and expressive form.

Design
The rectangular dining table is anchored by fan-shaped legs that echo the verticality of the accompanying chairs, reinforced at the base with brass detailing. These brass elements serve both a structural and visual purpose, subtly highlighting the construction while protecting the wooden arcs. The overall design suggests an architect’s eye for balance, proportion, and functional beauty.

with its blend of geometric control and sculptural presence, this dining table offers a bold interpretation of Italian craftsmanship in the 1960s. While attribution to Monti is not documented, the architectural language of the set suggests a designer with formal training and vision.

Condition
The set has been completely restored in our workshop. Wood surfaces have been refinished, and all chairs have been newly upholstered. Minor traces of wear consistent with age remain visible on the brass and some structural elements.

We also have the matching dining chairs available. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
