Altillo Cocktail Table

The Altillo Cocktail Table by John Richard occupies a room with quiet authority, its elongated eucalyptus form finished in a richly atmospheric smoked treatment that deepens every grain and shadow. Silver leaf detailing on the steel elements introduces a cool luminosity, a counterpoint that keeps the piece from settling too comfortably into any single period or mood. At sixty inches across and a considered sixteen and a quarter inches in height, the proportions are precisely calibrated for the generous living room — low enough to invite conversation, substantial enough to anchor a seating arrangement with conviction.
