Platner Coffee Table

Warren Platner for Knoll - 1966

Warren Platner defined a “classic” as “something that every time you look at it, you accept it as it is and you see no way of improving it”. In 1966 he introduced his classic Platner collection of furniture, a collection that captures the “decorative, gentle, graceful” shapes that were beginning to infiltrate the modern vocabulary. Platner’s tables were created by welding hundreds of curved, nickel-plated steel rods to circular frames, serving both as structure and ornament. The coffee table is available in two sizes.
