Maison Lecan presents this clear acrylic side table from the 1970s, in the spirit of Italian and French plastic design from that era, which was fascinated by new materials and transparency.
The tabletop consists of a thick sheet of acrylic thermoformed in a cascading “waterfall” shape—where the material bends into a U-shape to simultaneously create an upper and lower surface. The edges reveal a violet hue characteristic of acrylic from that era, which captures and diffuses light differently depending on the angle. The material’s transparency gives the piece a sense of total visual lightness, almost immaterial.
The central four-pronged star-shaped base in brushed chrome is understated and precise—it anchors the table to the floor without detracting from its lightness. The piece is in good overall condition, with the slight signs of wear typical of a piece of this age.
A side table with a distinctly 1970s character that fits just as well in a boldly vintage interior as it does in a contemporary space seeking an unexpected counterpoint.

Maison Lecan presents this transparent acrylic side table from the 1970s, in the spirit of Italian and French plastic design from an era fascinated by new materials and transparency.
The top is formed from a thick sheet of thermoformed acrylic in a waterfall shape—where the material folds into a U to create both an upper and a lower surface simultaneously. The edges reveal a violet tint characteristic of the acrylic of this era, which captures and diffuses light differently depending on the angle. The material’s transparency lends the piece a sense of total visual lightness, almost as if it were immaterial.
The four-pronged brushed chrome star base is understated and precise—anchoring the table to the floor without detracting from its lightness. The piece is in good overall condition, with the slight signs of wear typical for a piece of this age.
A side table with a distinctly 1970s character, equally at home in a bold vintage interior or a contemporary space seeking an unexpected contrast.
