✨ High-End Italian Design Coffee Table – Gilded, Plexiglass & Mirrored Glass – ca. 1975 (XL)
Some furniture is functional.
And some furniture makes a statement.
This exceptional coffee table is a high-end Italian design object from the mid-1970s—a period when Italy was the global cradle of luxurious interior design, with an unprecedented blend of glamour, material innovation, and craftsmanship.
This is exactly the kind of table you normally see in exclusive villas, hotel suites, and stylish designer interiors: richly crafted, extremely solid, and made to impress.

🇮🇹 Italy: the absolute pinnacle of 1970s design
In the 1970s, Italy was known for furniture that:
• pushed boundaries with Plexiglass and glass
• were finished with gilded details
• and had a distinctly luxurious appearance
This table fully exudes that atmosphere: glamour, class, and pure presence.
⸻
💎 Materials & Finish (Pure Luxury)
• Thick, faceted glass top
• Mirror shelf with brass/gilt frame
• Solid plexiglass legs
• Gilded details with tassel motif (typically Italian and extremely chic)
• Luxurious finish down to the last detail
⸻
🏋️ Durability / Weight
This is not a lightweight vintage table.
The table is exceptionally solid and incredibly heavy (over 35 kg).
You can feel it in every detail: this was made as a premium interior piece, not as a decorative "fashion item."
⸻
✅ Condition (Exceptional)
The table is in remarkably excellent condition.
Signs of wear:
• A few light scratches on the glass
• Minimal light scratches on the brass/gilded edge
Furthermore:
• No cracks
• No glass chips
• No rust or oxidation
• Mechanically in mint condition
⭐ The mirrored finish is still like new and shows no signs of delamination (very rare for this type of table).
⭐ The gilded finish is also in excellent condition.
This is an important quality feature: this type of finish only remains this beautiful when the table was originally manufactured in a higher segment. (See also the detailed photos: no dull spots, no oxidation, no "brushed-away" edges.)
