The table is formed from a continuous sheet of curved glass that flows from the horizontal tabletop into dramatically rounded sides and inward-sweeping supports. Four tapered wooden feet penetrate the glass structure and provide a striking visual counterpoint to its transparent, fluid form. The combination of transparent curved glass and warm natural wood gives the table an almost weightless architectural presence. Viewed from different angles, its continuous contours create constantly changing lines and reflections, making the piece as sculptural as it is functional. Produced by FIAM Italia, a manufacturer internationally recognized for pushing the technical and aesthetic possibilities of curved glass furniture. The Tango is a distinctive example of 1990s Italian postmodern and contemporary furniture design. The table retains its label, confirming the attribution. Made in Italy in 1996. Good original vintage condition with minor signs of use and age consistent with its history.
