A remarkable sculptural design featuring a handcrafted gilt wrought iron base formed as an organic tree with intertwining branches and roots. The expressive base reflects the Brutalist movement’s fascination with natural forms and artisanal craftsmanship. The heavy wrought iron structure supports its original thick oval glass top, creating a striking contrast between the delicate transparency of the glass and the dramatic sculptural presence of the base. The gilt finish has developed a beautiful patina over time, enhancing the texture and character of the piece while emphasizing its handcrafted nature. The table is signed with an engraved Salvino Marsura signature on one of the feet, confirming its authenticity. An exceptional statement piece that functions equally as a coffee table and as a work of art, making it a focal point in both modern and eclectic interiors. In very good original condition with minor wear consistent with age and use. The gilt wrought iron retains a rich aged patina, and the original glass top remains well preserved. 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
