Vintage Belgian Painted Coffee Table by De Coene Frères, 1950s

A striking Belgian mid‑century coffee table by De Coene Frères, combining refined craftsmanship with painterly expression. The rectangular top features a lacquered panel with an abstract composition of autumnal tones; ochre, rust, and green, rendered beneath glass, evoking a dynamic play of texture and movement. The artwork’s organic rhythm contrasts beautifully with the table’s clean, geometric frame. The structure, executed in wood with black lacquered legs and light‑toned trim, reflects De Coene’s signature balance between modernist restraint and decorative sophistication. This piece stands as both functional furniture and art object, emblematic of postwar Belgian design’s dialogue between industry and artistry.
