Mid-20th Century Italian Sculptural Bronze Ballet Dancers Table with Glass Top

A significant, mid-20th-century Italian sculptural table, featuring an elegant figurative bronze base that depicts a pair of dancers—a man and a woman—captured in a dynamic and expressive pose.

The two figures are shown with their arms extended and their bodies intertwined, creating a composition defined by a great sense of movement and balance. The dancers’ arms stretch out horizontally to support an oval, clear glass tabletop, effectively transforming the table’s functional structure into a true sculptural composition.

The base is crafted from bronze using the traditional lost-wax casting technique—a process that allows for remarkable precision in the rendering of details. The high quality of the workmanship is evident in the anatomical modeling of the bodies, the facial features, the hands, the garments, and the definition of the musculature.

The bronze retains a rich, natural patina acquired over time, which accentuates the depth of the modeling and creates an elegant contrast with the visual lightness of the clear glass top.

A piece with a strong decorative presence, conceived simultaneously as a furnishing element and a sculpture—ideally suited as a center table or a focal point in a refined setting.

Italian-made, mid-20th century.
