INSPIRATION

The Matthias Coffee Table is inspired by a pair of magnificently ornate British side tables (ca. 1740) from The Met collection. Thought to have been influenced by an unfinished drawing by Matthias Lock (British, ca. 1710–ca 1765), the tables are made from carved and gilded pine with a modern scagliola top of fine plaster., Decorative details, such as large shell motifs, classical masks, lion's paws, curling acanthus leaves, and a running Vitruvian scroll, are characteristic of Palladian furniture design. The Matthias Coffee Table is a celebration of the original designs crafted in an antiqued gold finish with an elegant green marble top. L. 122 | W. 62 | H. 50.5 cm (BY ORDER)
