This piece features a minimalist, architectural steel frame finished in a deep matte black, paired with two panels of wire glass that offer a bold industrial edge while maintaining a sleek modern profile.

Constructed from 1" x 2" rectangular steel stock, the frame is assembled with visible Allen head bolt fasteners, a signature D’Urso detail that highlights the table’s structural honesty and refined simplicity. The iron finish shows light wear consistent with age, adding authentic vintage character to the piece.

While the original Knoll label is partially intact on the underside, it has faded over time. The design and build quality are highly consistent with D’Urso’s known work for Knoll, and this may be a prototype or limited production piece.

A superb example of American modernism and postmodern industrial design, this table is ideal for collectors, architects, or anyone looking to anchor a contemporary interior with a rare and timeless piece.
