We are waiting for approval of the relatives of the artist because we are investigating the provenance of this magnificent brutalistic masterpiece. Spectacular Brutalist coffee table designed by Raf Verjans( 1935-2022)in Belgium, circa 1970. The table has a solid copper base topped with a copper frame that has been filled with concrete. The aluminium and brass mosaic details on the tabletop have been laid into the concrete by hand, with an eyecatching precision and magnificent brutalistic pattern. Verjans' distinct language comes to life through his unique and rare aesthetic, and his training as a goldsmith and sculptor is clearly visible in this table which harmoniously balances ornamental beauty and an unparalleled level of refinement . This hand made process results in a truly unique 1 of 1 table. Raf Verjans is a Belgian sculptor and goldsmith. Raf Verjans can be scaled amongst other great names as Ado Chale, Fernand Dresse, Armand Jonckers and Willy Rizzo for example. He studied at the L’Ecole des métiers d’art at the Maredsous Abbaye in in Belgium, where he gratuated in 1956. He specializes in working with bronze, gold and metal. He has done only a very limited amount of projects involving furniture, making his pieces very hard to come by. In good original condition with wear consistent with age and use, preserving a beautiful patina. Please contact us to order this item and recieve a bespoke shipping quote.
