A splendid and elegant coffee/corner table, model "Supercalif", designed by architect Luigi Massoni for the prestigious Italian manufacturer Gallotti & Radice, dating back to the late 1980s / early 1990s. This piece is a unique item made to special order (custom) outside the catalog. Compared to standard coffee table versions (usually very low, around 38 cm), it has a height of 50 cm which slims the sculptural structure, making it perfect both as a centerpiece coffee table and as a refined corner side table next to important sofas. Sculptural bases: Composed of two iconic independent "bow-tie" (or zigzag ribbon) structures, made by the perfect artisanal alignment and offsetting of thick, ground green crystal vertical panels. An unmistakable geometric play of transparencies and reflections, the manufacturer's aesthetic signature. Top: Square slab of thick, transparent crystal, polished flush. As per Luigi Massoni's original purist design, the top is simply placed freely on the bases, its stability guaranteed by the weight of the crystal itself. Dimensions: Length: 80 cm Width: 80 cm Height: 50 cm (Special custom size) Condition: The table is in excellent overall vintage condition, consistent with age and use. The crystal maintains its extraordinary original luster. It presents no structural defects. A single scratch is visible only against the light (photo 5) and not visible from a top-down view (photo 6). Note for collectors: Given the nature of the special, out-of-series order from that era, the top does not feature the catalog engraving, confirming the single, artisanal craftsmanship of the manufacturer's projects department. Authenticity is fully guaranteed by the design, the excellent materials, and the unique construction techniques of Gallotti & Radice.
