Fontana Arte “Tour Quadrato” Coffee Table – Gae Aulenti (1980)

A true icon of postmodern Italian design: the “Tour Quadrato” coffee table, designed by Gae Aulenti in 1980 for Fontana Arte.

This sculptural piece features a 19 mm thick tempered glass top, supported by four glass wheels with polished chrome hardware and original black rubber edges.

The square edition (100 × 100 cm) is significantly rarer than the rectangular version and a coveted collector’s piece.

The design expresses Aulenti’s signature balance between industrial strength and architectural purity – bold, transparent, and timeless.

Condition:

Excellent vintage condition – no chips or cracks. Some light surface scratches visible in strong light. Chrome is clean and shiny. The original rubber is intact, with age-appropriate surface dryness.
