Coffee Table - Italy c. 1960
-

SketchUp practice this morning.
The panels are loose and can be rearranged.
-
Designer is known or it's an imaginative model ?
-
I don't know the designer but it is based on a real table.
-
Don't yet refound, but this funny one!

-

Interesting piece. The way the legs and stretchers criss-cross reminds me of the Gerrit Reitveld red-blue chair. -
David, I was thinking of Rietveld, too. At least there are some halving joints in this table.

I modeled that chair a few years ago and did a child-sized version which a friend of mine built. I guess it was well-received but I wonder how comfortable they are.
-
Dave,
An old friend had a neighbor make a reproduction of the red-blue chair. It's pretty comfortable. -
Is it like an Adirondack chair? Difficult to get out of once you're in it?
-
As I recall, the chair was pretty normal--easy to sit in and get out of. The arms were just in the right spot, too.
