About this piece

Details that make the object.

An elegant, elongated Mid-Century Modern coffee table featuring a rich American Walnut frame and a signature frosted glass top. Attributed to the legendary Danish-American designer Jens Risom, this piece is a masterclass in "warm modernism." The table features a sophisticated frosted glass inset, often referred to as Vitriolite, which provides a cool, architectural contrast to the organic grain of the walnut. The design utilizes a recessed apron to create a "floating" top aesthetic, supported by clean, tapered legs that give the substantial frame a light, airy silhouette. This is a quintessential example of high-end 1960s American design, prioritizing both durability and a minimalist aesthetic. Please confirm location with seller (NY or NJ)
