and then there is model 2007 in the d / decorated version.
a manifesto of radical 1970s luxury, a triad of the highest systems of design.
a livable sculpture.
the chamfered, massive, geometric octagonal top is clad in worked and dyed natural parchment in a deep brown tone, with those organic, almost cosmic marblings that are the unmistakable signature of the tura manufacture.
each surface is an unrepeatable landscape: no texture can be replicated, no chromatic vibration is identical. It is living matter.
light flows across the top like over a stone polished by time, creating depth and three-dimensionality.
the central monolithic base, also octagonal, is an exercise in architectural power: compact, structural, almost brutalist in its presence.
the parchment treated with tura’s secret technique of the 1960s–70s, today practically impossible to replicate at that level of quality, makes each example a unique piece.
it is not simply rare. It is extremely difficult to source.
sculptural proportions, perfect balance between visual weight and optical lightness.
it presents in virtually perfect condition with minimal signs of time consistent with its age; the table is sold with a certificate of authenticity from the archivio tura and with a copy of the original catalog.
if you are looking for a table: this is not it.
if you are looking for an iconic collector’s piece: here it is.
