The Endless Table — MVSEVM 789

A singular expression of Frederick Kiesler’s radical modernist vision.

A sculptural, rarefied coffee table conceived in 1935—revived today with absolute fidelity to the original concept.

The Endless Table – MVSEVM 789 is more than a modernist coffee table; it is a presence.
Designed by Frederick Kiesler during one of the most inventive periods of his career, the piece anchors a space with quiet intensity. Its dual nesting forms create a sense of movement—an ebb and flow that shifts naturally with light, perspective, and proximity.

In contemporary interiors, it serves as a focal point: sculptural, enigmatic, and unmistakably architectural. Whether positioned in a refined residential setting or a private art-focused environment, the table becomes a conversation between past and present—between function and pure artistic intention.

Suggested visuals:
• Minimalist interior with the nested tables arranged asymmetrically
• Close-up of brushed aluminum texture catching soft directional lighting
• Archival-inspired vignette referencing Kiesler’s original 1935 drawings
• Optional 3D rotation or AR placement for scale and spatial interaction

Craftsmanship & Materials

MVSEVM 789 is produced with uncompromising attention to the material logic of the original 1935 design.
Frederick Kiesler’s concept—fluid, continuous, and non-linear—translates into a piece that balances sculptural presence with subtle engineering.

Design pedigree
• Based on Kiesler’s 1935 design for the New York apartment of textile designer Alma Mergentine
• Confirmed by a 1935 drawing depicting the dual nesting tops and tapered conical legs
