Vintage Brutalist coffee table attributed to Dutch artist Paul Kingma, 1960`s ca, Holland. This is an early version with the top made of concrete,slate and glacial stones. Texture and raw earthly materials developed over time. The rectangular top sits on a solid iron hammered frame giving an architectonic and industrial look to this unique piece.
Since the early 70`s Dutch artist Paul Kingma designed furniture incorporating natural elements of the Earth in a Brutalist but beautiful way. Early works are rare and simple. In the 80`s, Kingma incorporated other materials in relief like fossils, pebbles, copper and brass. Kingma once quoted "my stone tables resist the corruption of time, and support the weight of life". A Kingma table defies age and ignores fashion.
