The Bell coffee table plays with our preconceived notions of materials by using lightweight, fragile glass as its base paired with the visual "heaviness" associated with a metal top that seemingly hovers above the base. Hand-blown in a traditional manner using a wooden mold, the transparent tinted glass base asserts a sculptural presence in space while it creates an engaging juxtaposition with the solid brass frame on top - the Bell coffee table instantly adds a distinctive design touch to any interior. It celebrates the beauty of these materials with their colors and surfaces underscored by the virtues associated with hand-craftsmanship. Each table is handmade, meaning that small bubbles or bumps in the glass become a unique feature of each. Available in a range of base and top finish combinations. Manufactured by ClassiCon.

ClassiCon, a clever portmanteau deriving from the words “classic” and “contemporary,” perfectly fuses the range of designs produced by this German manufacturer. Founded in 1990, ClassiCon holds the worldwide license to produce Eileen Gray’s iconic range of designs from the 20th century. Before her death in 1973, Gray collaborated with London’s Aram Designs to issue many of her furnishings as production pieces – lounge chairs, sofas, side tables, dining tables, screens, and rugs. ClassiCon is the only licensed manufacturer of Eileen Gray’s designs. In addition to its meticulous production of her furnishings from the 1920s and 1930s, ClassiCon collaborates with a number of contemporary designers like Konstantin Grcic, Jader Alme ida, Nina Mair, Sauerbruch Hutton, Edward Barber + Jay Osgerby, Neri & Hu, Sebastian Herkner, to create new pieces. All ClassicCon pieces are presented as part of an edition where each example is both stamped and numbered. Switch Modern presents a cohesive ClassiCon range that encompasses nearly 100 years of important design.
