Italy, 1970s
Rare specimen of a low table in burl wood and brass.
Engraved signature
Designed by Gabriella Crespi in Italy in the 1970s, this rare vintage low table exemplifies the designer’s unmistakable ability to merge refined craftsmanship with a sculptural, almost architectural sensibility. Crafted in richly grained burl wood, the surface is animated by bold diagonal bands in polished brass, chromed to a luminous finish, which rhythmically interrupt and frame the natural pattern of the wood. The striking contrast between the organic warmth of the burl and the reflective precision of the metal creates a dynamic dialogue of materials, a hallmark of Crespi’s work.
