Space-Age aluminuim coffee table - attributed to Artifort
A striking Space Age aluminum coffee table attributed to Artifort, featuring a sculptural three-leg cast base and a thick round glass top. This elegant 1970s modernist piece reflects the organic, futuristic design language associated with Artifort’s iconic era. A refined statement table for contemporary interiors across Belgium and Europe.
Bring a touch of futuristic elegance into your interior with this striking Space Age aluminum coffee table, attributed to Artifort and dating from the early 1970s. This sculptural piece reflects the bold, organic design language that defined the mid-century modern era in Belgium, the Netherlands, and wider Europe.
Design & Aesthetic
The table features a beautifully cast three-arm aluminum base, a hallmark of Space Age modernism. The flowing curves, soft transitions and solid construction create a visually dynamic foundation that appears almost weightless, yet is structurally robust. The round 74.5 cm glass top sits elegantly on the tripod structure, keeping the silhouette light, architectural and timeless.
Materials & Construction
-
Genuine cast aluminum base with sculptural lines
-
Thick safety glass top (10–12 mm) for stability and clarity
-
Combined weight approximately 17–21 kg (≈ 24 kg packaged)
-
Height 33 cm, ideal as a centerpiece in a living room or lounge setting
The central column is crafted in a style typical of high-quality European production from the 1970s, giving this table a refined industrial character while maintaining a modernist purity.
Why This Piece Stands Out
This table fits effortlessly within interiors that appreciate mid-century modern, Artifort-style organic forms, or the smooth metallic surfaces typical of the Space Age design movement. It works beautifully in both minimalist environments and eclectic, design-driven spaces.
As with many collectible pieces from this era, similar models are often linked to Artifort due to the recognizable futuristic aesthetic and the sculptural nature of the base. This makes the piece highly appealing to collectors and design lovers across Belgium, Europe and beyond.
Condition
The table is in vintage condition consistent with age, with minor traces of use on the aluminum and glass surface. The structure is stable and ready for everyday use.
