Piero Ranzani “Personalità” coffee table for Elam, rosewood, Italy, 1960s.
The “Personalità” coffee table is a conversation between materials and form, heritage to mid-century Italian design. Rosewood, with its rich hues and grain, takes center stage on the tabletop and upper legs.
A subtle curve hints at dynamism before transitioning to a surprising twist. The lower legs introduce teak, a shift that adds intrigue and ensures lasting function. The square profile of the upper legs tapers into a dynamic octagonal base, further emphasizing the material change. Steel accents, the final element in this material dialogue, add a touch of modernism and subtly counterpoint the warmth of the woods.
They enhance aesthetics and reinforce the table’s strength. Ranzani’s masterful use of contrasting materials and shapes creates a visually arresting and functionally sound model. The “Personalità” coffee table seamlessly blends into any space, adding a touch of timeless elegance and a subtle nod to mid-century architectural principles.
