Combining a sculptural white marble base with a substantial oval glass top, this piece brings architectural clarity and an elegant sense of visual balance to the living room. The defining feature is its asymmetrical cantilever construction. A tilted cylindrical marble pedestal supports the glass towards one end, leaving a generous expanse of the tabletop projecting beyond the base. This arrangement creates an almost floating appearance, contrasting the visual weight of the stone with the transparency of the glass. The white marble displays delicate grey veining, introducing natural movement within the otherwise restrained composition. Visible through the glass, the pedestal remains an integral part of the design from every angle. The thick glass edge outlines the tabletop’s gently curved profile, while discreet metal fittings provide a precise industrial accent. Measuring 130 cm in width, the oval top offers a generous surface without the visual density of a solid tabletop. Its transparency allows surrounding materials, flooring, and textiles to remain visible, making it particularly effective in interiors where space, light, and carefully selected objects take priority. The k1000 works beautifully alongside low sofas and sculptural lounge chairs. In a brutalist interior, its veined marble offers a refined contrast to exposed concrete. In a modernist setting, the glass and stone complement warm walnut, patinated leather, and architectural lighting. Within a minimalist home, the unusual pedestal provides a distinctive focal point while maintaining an open, uncluttered appearance. A compelling example of 1970s european furniture design, this table offers both everyday function and the presence of a sculptural object. **condition** overall in very good vintage condition, with wear consistent with age and use. The glass top has scratches from previous use. Please refer to the detailed product photographs for the actual surface condition, marble veining, and finish.
