Emilio Rey Coffee Table, Spain, 1970s — Gold-tone Metal

This remarkable coffee table, designed by Emilio Rey in the 1970s, perfectly illustrates the decorative spirit and craftsmanship of mid-20th-century Spanish design. Renowned for his dramatic interiors and artistic furniture, Rey developed a distinctive visual language characterized by dynamic metal structures and refined finishes. This piece features a gilt metal base in the form of an intricately braided rope, finished with large tassels—a bold and theatrical gesture that reflects the international trend of the time for sculptural and ornamental furniture. The undulating glass top provides a contemporary touch that balances the richness of the base. A true icon, this rare and highly sought-after piece has become a prized collector's item due to the limited distribution of Rey's designs and the renewed interest in Spanish design of the 1960s and 70s. Dimensions: Height: 43 cm Width: 130 cm Depth: 87 cm Condition: Very good vintage condition. Slight signs of wear due to age and use. Glass top and metal base in good condition.
