The table features an elongated oval top with a thick inset glass panel, allowing the richly figured rosewood frame to remain visually present while introducing a sense of lightness and transparency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base is particularly striking and closely aligned with documented Buffa designs produced for Arrighi. It is composed of gracefully curved structural supports that flow seamlessly into finely tapered legs, each terminating in brass sabots—an important detail associated with high-quality Italian craftsmanship of the period. The sculptural geometry of the base, with its subtle outward movement and refined proportions, reflects Buffa’s mastery of form and his ability to reinterpret classical motifs within a modern idiom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe accompanying set of six dining chairs is equally sophisticated, featuring gently arched ladder-back frames and elegantly tapered legs that mirror the table’s design language. The seats have been newly upholstered in a bold zebra-pattern textile, offering a dynamic visual contrast while remaining easily adaptable to a more neutral or tailored upholstery if desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eComplete dining suites of this quality and cohesion are increasingly scarce on the market, particularly those demonstrating such a clear relationship to Buffa’s documented work. The present set stands as a compelling example of Italian mid-century design at its most refined—balancing sculptural presence with functional elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTable:\u003cbr\u003e77 in.
