Large bamboo & wengé coffee table by Axel Vervoordt

This rare 1980s coffee table, designed by Belgian decorator and art dealer Axel Vervoordt, exemplifies his deep appreciation for natural materials. The table features a harmonious blend of rich wengé wood and bamboo, reflecting Vervoordt’s inspiration from Japanese design principles and the concept of Wabi-Sabi, which emphasizes beauty in imperfection and transience. The clean lines and subdued color palette contribute to its serene and sophisticated presence, making it a notable example of Vervoordt’s design philosophy.
