A sculptural Brazilian Modern coffee table by Ziglio Decorações, executed in solid rosewood with a refined marble top, Brazil, circa 1960. Defined by its architectural restraint and material contrast, the piece balances the depth of richly toned hardwood with the quiet luminosity of natural stone.
The structure is crafted in solid jacarandá, prized for its density, durability, and dramatic grain variation. The dark wood frame—clean-lined and proportionally grounded—anchors the composition with subtle authority. Visible joinery details and hardware accents reflect the pragmatic sophistication characteristic of mid-century Brazilian design workshops.
The marble top introduces a cool, tactile counterpoint, its softly honed surface enhancing the table’s horizontal clarity while maintaining a sense of lightness. The interplay between stone and hardwood speaks to a broader Brazilian Modern ethos: material honesty elevated through disciplined geometry.
With generous proportions (15" H x 59 W x 26 D cm), this piece functions as both a central anchor in a seating arrangement and a study in refined material dialogue. A compelling example of 1960s Brazilian craftsmanship, ideal for collectors and interiors seeking structural presence paired with quiet elegance.
