Artigas Cocktail Table, Bronze

The Artigas Cocktail Table arrives as a sculptural argument for the table as art object — its bronzed metal and aluminum base grounding a generous stone surface edged and enriched with agate, the natural patterning of which ensures that no two presentations of this piece are ever precisely alike. At once monumental in its fifty-one-inch spread and remarkably composed in its sixteen-and-a-half-inch profile, it commands a seating arrangement without overwhelming it. This is the work of John Richard at its most considered: form and material in quiet, authoritative dialogue.
