Product description
A refined Ambo coffee table designed in 1987 by Enzo Mari for Zanotta. This elegant table reflects Mari’s rigorous design philosophy, in which structure, proportion, and material logic are reduced to their purest form.
The design is defined by a generously proportioned glass tabletop that appears to float above a precise, almost schematic base of slender brass legs. The contrast between the cool transparency of the glass and the warm metallic tone of the brass creates a quiet tension, lending the table both visual lightness and architectural presence. Every element is purposeful: there is no excess, no ornament — only clarity, balance, and structural honesty.
The Ambo table exemplifies Mari’s belief that good design should be intellectually rigorous yet accessible, functional yet culturally meaningful. Produced by Zanotta during a period of intense experimentation and refinement in Italian design, this piece stands as a timeless expression of late 20th-century modernism.
A restrained but highly sophisticated object, equally at home in a curated design interior or a museum-level collection.
