The oak framework has been professionally stripped, revealing the natural grain, softly weathered texture, and pale organic tones of the wood.
The broad rectangular top is framed by thick oak timbers surrounding a generous panel of black marble, creating a bold contrast in both color and material. Simple squared legs and a low profile give the table the strong, sculptural presence associated with Brutalist design, while the natural oak brings warmth and character.
Beautifully understated, the table reflects the Belgian tradition of creating furniture that feels both architectural and inviting. Its substantial construction, honest materials, and timeless palette allow it to blend beautifully with traditional antiques as well as more contemporary furnishings.
Circa mid-1900s
Measures 14H x 59W x 31.5D
