Looking for a unique vintage furniture piece that compliments your modern home?
Sometimes we come across an incredibly rare Mid Century Modern treasure that is hard to believe we are lucky enough to have in stock. This is one of them.
This foldaway round coffee/side table is designed by non-other than Torsten JOHANSSON (1917-1996) for AB Formträ in Sweden. This 'TABLE BASSE D'APPOINT' blurs the lines between art and practical furniture. Torsten JOHANSSON was famous for beautifully designed practical pieces and confronting sculptures. Very rare and very collectible, this is a premium MCM piece of history.
Mixing old and new furniture pieces creates a dynamic and personalised interior design that blends the charm of vintage with the sleekness of modern styles. This contrast not only adds depth and character to a space but also allows for a unique expression of individual taste, making the room feel curated and timeless.
