A rare, oversized four-cylinder "Bollard" cocktail table by the legendary Karl Springer (Model No. 1), circa 1980. This is the grandest configuration of Springer's iconic sculptural series, designed for high-end residential interiors that demand architectural weight and 1980s Hollywood Regency glamour.
Each of the four massive pillars is meticulously crafted in hand-laid tessellated Mactan (fossil) stone, offering a rich, organic texture that serves as a counterpoint to the industrial polished brass hardware. This authentic Springer piece features the signature internal brass rod anchoring system: structural brass bolts pass directly through precision-drilled holes in the glass to physically lock the massive slab to the stone supports.

While a masterpiece of 1980s Postmodernism, this table's neutral palette and clean geometric lines allow it to anchor a wide range of contemporary aesthetics. Its "monumental" scale makes it a perfect centerpiece for:
"• High-End Organic Modern: Complements bouclé seating and natural textures.
"• Quiet Luxury: The fossil stone offers a sophisticated, understated alternative to loud marble.
"• Curated Transitional: Adds architectural interest and a vintage soul to a modern, clean-lined living space.
"• Maximalist / Hollywood Regency: Pairs beautifully with brass accents, bold colors, and velvet upholstery.


Condition:
Alterations: Original Condition Unaltered
Imperfections: Some Imperfections
Condition Notes: Excellent Vintage Condition. The stone pillars are structurally sound with beautiful natural variation and no major losses to the stone inlay. The brass hardware retains a brilliant original luster.
"• Note on Glass: There is a minor "flea bite" chip on one edge of the glass. Due to the 4-cylinder design, the glass can be rotated so that the chip is completely concealed within any of the stone notches, making the visible glass surface appear flawless when assembled.
