Salvino Marsura coffee table

The results of Salvino Marsura’s work can be beautifully abstract or sensitive observations of natural forms. This is shown in the base of the table which grows outwards mimicking the roots of a tree.

It comes in good vintage condition with the metal showing some signs of patina and oxidisation across all surfaces. Glass has some surface scratches and chips condition, can be replaced upon request. The artist’s signature is engraved on the surface.

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.
