While the architectural frame is distinctly reminiscent of vintage Maison Baguès Style, Vintage Phyllis Morris Style, and Chinese Chippendale designs, this metal cocktail table has been transformed into a one-of-a-kind Turtle and Crane Atelier bespoke masterpiece.
The frame features a three-dimensional gilded faux bamboo motif that beautifully structures the distressed gold fretwork and vintage open fretwork table apron, evoking the curated luxury of historical Maison Jansen and Tommi Parzinger collections.
The cast aluminum bamboo base features an exquisite Italian gilt finish achieved exclusively through a labor-intensive hand-gilding technique. Multiple layers of gold leaf metal were carefully applied to the hand-gilded aluminum frame, followed by a detailed fly speckled gold process to create rich, authentic depth. This tailored treatment shapes the tiered stretcher base table into a work of "furniture jewelry," capturing the maximalism of Hollywood Regency center table design, Hans Kögl nature-inspired aesthetics, and the tropical glamour of Palm Beach Regency and Dorothy Draper inspired decor.
A definitive signature of high-end vintage furniture, the gold glass coffee table features an inset glass top table design that provides exceptional light refraction. Newly hand-gilt at our Mobile, Alabama studio, the structurally sound solid aluminum frame commands the same visual gravity as mid-century Florentine style originals and vintage Labarge imports, serving as a definitive focal point for an upscale living room styled in the spirit of Mario Buatta.
