Elegant and functional, this tubular steel side table embodies the spirit of European Modernism at its most progressive. The design clearly draws inspiration from the pioneering furniture created by Marcel Breuer, the Hungarian architect and designer whose experiments with tubular steel revolutionised furniture design in the late 1920s and 1930s.
The table's construction recalls Breuer's iconic B12 and B22 models produced by Thonet. Like those celebrated designs, it combines a lightweight chromed steel frame with warm wooden surfaces, creating a striking balance between industrial innovation and everyday practicality.
Originally intended as a side or radio table, it remains a versatile piece today. Equally suited beside a sofa, armchair or bed, it offers practical storage while introducing a touch of Bauhaus-era sophistication to a room.
The wooden elements have been professionally refurbished and present beautifully, with a rich, warm tone. The tubular steel frame remains in good vintage condition, displaying light signs of age and use, including minor surface wear and an some patina concentrated mainly around the lower sections. These marks are consistent with the table's age and contribute to its authentic character.
