Isamu Noguchi Style Coffee Table

Noguchi Glass Coffee Table

This table has a clear sculptural look, which is a fitting impression as it is made in the style of a design by the renowned American/Japanese sculptor, Isamu Noguchi. He had developed his own particular style of sculpture in the 1920s. In the 1930s, he drew acclaim  for several important public-works sculptures produced for the Associated Press building in New York. By this time he had also turned his skills to designing ceramics,lighting ,and furniture,and in 1947, Noguchi’s IN-50 glass table was first manufactured.

The table illustrated above reproduces the style of the Noguchi IN-50. As a lifestyle choice, the combination of good quality and design does not have to be overly expensive. To see more you can continue to read at the website of Vita-interiors.com
