Sculptural mid-century dining table Carlo De Carli 1950s

This refined Italian dining table from the 1950s–60s, attributed to Carlo De Carli, stands out for its sculptural design and the harmonious balance between form and material. Its presence is discreet yet distinctive, capable of defining a space without overpowering it. The round tabletop features a slim profile with gently beveled edges, veneered in blonde teak chosen for its vivid grain and warm, even tone. The true focal point, however, is the central pedestal: a dodecagonal hourglass-shaped base, masterfully crafted in solid wood. The structure evokes a sense of architectural rhythm and fluid elegance, echoing the organic yet rational language of mid-century Italian design. This is a piece born of exceptional Italian craftsmanship, with seamless joinery, flowing transitions, and hand-finished surfaces that speak to an era of material integrity and artisan precision. Fully conservatively restored, it retains its original patina and design identity, respecting the integrity of proportions and finishes. Perfect as a statement dining table or centerpiece in a curated interior, design gallery, or executive space, where 1950s Italian design meets contemporary sensibility. Diameter 120 / H.80 (cm) --
