Salvino Marsura Maschere coffee table

Rippled edges bring a certain softness to an otherwise brutalist piece; its stamped and gorged halves mirror each other as if split in two while still in the forge.  

The piece is in good condition, with patination and wear consistent with age and use. The table comes with a new glass top, with a lead time of between two to three weeks; custom dimensions are available on request. 

Salvino Marsura (1938-2020) was an artisan metalworker. After learning his craft in the dynamic workshop of sculptor and ‘iron poet’ Toni Benetton, he spent more than 60 years producing sculpture, furniture, objects and memorials in his hometown of Treviso, Italy.

Marsura’s ironwork art and furniture relishes in the manual aesthetic of the forge, giving voice to the raw metal and the processes of its manipulation including sweltering heat, hammering, bending and welding. His distinctive hand marries elements of brutalism and traditional decorative arts.
