About the Item

in 1970’s, 1970s Merrow Associates Chrome Smoked Glass Dining Table Description: Step into the glamorous haze of 1960s and 1970s British design with this exceptional dining table by Merrow Associates, crafted under the visionary direction of Richard Young. Founded in London in the early 1960s, Merrow Associates emerged as a hidden gem in the global furniture scene, blending modernist innovation with luxurious materials. Their pieces, sold through prestigious retailers like Harrods and Heals, graced the homes of European elites and international tastemakers, with their sleek designs finding a special place in collections worldwide. This dining table, with its striking smoked glass top, is a product of that golden age—a design that feels like a prop from a 1970s cinematic masterpiece, blending futuristic flair with nostalgic charm. Sourced from a private estate in the beautiful countryside of Kent, where it once anchored elegant gatherings, its provenance hints at a life well-lived among discerning collectors, adding an air of intrigue to its already captivating presence. The table’s base is a sculptural triumph of chrome-plated steel, featuring interlocking curved arches that evoke the grace of a suspension bridge or a modernist sculpture. The mirror-like finish of the chrome creates a mesmerizing play of reflections, while the substantial smoked glass top—measuring approximately 72 inches in length and 38 inches in width—casts a moody, translucent glow that contrasts beautifully with the gleaming metal. This dark, enigmatic glass not only enhances the table’s sophistication but also allows the intricate base to shine through, making it a perfect centerpiece for intimate dinners or lavish soirées. Details: - Designer: Merrow Associates (Richard Young) - Period: 1970s - Materials: Chrome-plated steel, smoked glass - Dimensions: H71.5cm W198.5cm D91.5cm - Condition: Excellent vintage condition.
