1960s John Piper Floral Coffee Table for Habitat

A striking original 1960s coffee table featuring the iconic floral design by John Piper, created for Habitat during Terence Conran’s formative years. The elongated Formica top is beautifully decorated with Piper’s delicate botanical artwork, combining soft florals with graphic balance typical of British mid-century design. Set on slender black metal legs with an ebonised wood under-tier, this piece perfectly captures the optimism and creativity of 1960s interiors.

Both decorative and functional, it works effortlessly as a statement coffee table, low display surface, or even a bench-style table in a hallway or studio space.
