Tulip Coffee Table by Victor Wilkins for G Plan, 1970s

Designed by G-Plan in the UK, this “tulip” table is a celebration of the innovative furniture design of the period.
The table frame is made from bent plywood, a technique that achieves graceful curves and flowing lines.
The use of plywood is enhanced by the rich color of teak veneer, which gives the appearance of solid wood while ensuring flexibility and durability.

Teak, with its golden brown hue and straight grain, was a popular material in the 1970s, valued for its durable quality and aesthetic appeal.
A clear glass top sits elegantly on the wooden frame, providing a clean surface that beautifully highlights the warm tones of teak.

The transparency of the glass gives an impression of lightness and airiness to the room, which allows it not to invade the space while establishing itself as a design element.
Below the glass top is a substantial base shelf, providing additional storage space and enhancing the functionality of the table.

The integration of chrome finishes brings a touch of shine and modernity, contrasting with the natural wood elements.

Completing the design, the coffee table is mounted on casters, which glide smoothly for easy movement. This practical feature highlights the versatility of the table and its ability to adapt to different living spaces.
Overall, this “tulip” coffee table from G-Plan embodies the spirit of 1970s design, where the elegance of natural materials met the sophistication of modern finishes, resulting in pieces that are both beautiful and utilitarian .
