Italian 1950's Blue Glass and Painted Coffee Table with Brass Detail

A rare and unusual piece, so indicative of the glamorous post-war Italian period in design. Extremely well-made with beautiful craftsmanship and attention to detail. The piece is finished all-around, with an enclosed drawer on the backside which holds space for a light bulb to create an back-lit effect. (Not electrified for USA, if desired for electrical use).
