Description:

Designed by celebrated Brazilian modernist Percival Lafer, this 1970s Brutalist coffee table is a sculptural statement piece crafted from rich tropical hardwoods. The striking mosaic surface and sides feature staggered, hand-cut wooden slats in teak, rosewood, and mahogany—creating dynamic rhythm, depth, and tactility.

A hallmark of Brutalist Brazilian design, this table combines raw geometry with refined woodworking to produce a piece that is bold, architectural, and inherently tactile. Perfect for collectors and mid-century modern interiors seeking an artisanal, gallery-like focal point.
