About the Item

An extraordinary Daniel Gluck sculptural bronze "Lotus" coffee table base, handcrafted in California during the 1970s and representative of the artist's distinctive fusion of functional furniture and expressive sculpture. Best known for his dramatic bronze cocktail tables, Gluck developed a highly recognizable visual language that combined organic forms, architectural composition, and heavily textured surfaces into works that blurred the line between decorative art and collectible design. Similar examples of Gluck's sculptural tables have been documented through galleries and design archives, where his work is consistently identified by its unmistakable bronze construction and intensely detailed surface treatment. *Note, this listing is for the base only. A new glass or stone top can be fabricated to a size you specify. We can assist in the process although for ease of shipping we advise having the top made locally to you. Inspired by the natural world, this remarkable composition evokes the image of a lotus flower emerging from the water. Radiating supports extend outward like petals while perforated and coral-like forms rise dramatically from the center, creating a design that feels simultaneously botanical, aquatic, and almost otherworldly. The sculptural arrangement changes completely depending on the viewing angle, revealing new textures, silhouettes, and details from every perspective. The heavily worked bronze surface is particularly impressive. Deep inclusions, cratered textures, cut openings, and rugged contours create a dramatic interplay of light and shadow across the entire composition. The warm patinated finish further enhances the handcrafted quality of the piece, emphasizing the raw materiality that defines the finest examples of Brutalist design. Similar characteristics can be seen throughout Daniel Gluck's celebrated studio-made bronze tables, many of which were individually sculpted and welded rather than conventionally manufactured. Collectors of sculptural furniture will immediately recognize the visual relationship between this table and the iconic Paul Evans Sculpted Metal collection. The piece also reflects the broader influences of the American Studio Craft movement and shares aesthetic similarities with the work of Philip and Kelvin LaVerne, Silas Seandel, and other artists who transformed furniture into sculptural expression during the 1960s and 1970s. Rather than simply serving as a support for glass, the bronze base becomes the focal point of the design, functioning as a freestanding work of art in its own right. Equally compelling in residential and commercial interiors, this Daniel Gluck bronze lotus coffee table would work beautifully in a Brutalist, Mid-Century Modern, Organic Modern, Post-Modern, Contemporary, Hollywood Regency, Art Deco, or Studio Craft-inspired setting. Consider placing it in a living room, conversation area, gallery-inspired residence, luxury hotel lounge, members club, executive office, creative design studio, or penthouse apartment. Rarely encountered and instantly recognizable, this exceptional Daniel Gluck design represents a fascinating intersection of American studio sculpture and functional furniture, capturing the bold artistic experimentation that defined the most innovative design of the 1970s. MEASUREMENTS: H 14" x W 36.75" x D 17" *Note, these dimensions are for the base only, if you add a glass top you can customize the size of the table CONDITION: Very good vintage condition with light patina and wear. Some signs of surface dust, can be further cleaned prior to use.
