FUR-018 Adrian Pearsall — "Goop" Brutalist Drum End Table for Craft Associates, Sculpted Resin, MCM / Atomic Age, c.1960s–70s

A striking original "Goop" Brutalist drum end table by Adrian Pearsall (American, 1925–2011) for Craft Associates — one of the most iconic and collectible pieces from Pearsall's celebrated Brutalist line, with a laminate top and the signature sculpted resin base that defines the Goop series.

Adrian Pearsall founded Craft Associates in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania in 1952 and spent the next three decades creating some of the most expressive and exuberant American furniture of the Atomic Age. His Goop and Brutalist lines — with their richly textured resin surfaces, organic forms, and raw sculptural energy — are frequently compared to the work of Paul Evans, whose Brutalist Sculpted Bronze studio pieces now sell for tens of thousands at auction. Pearsall brought that same bold vision to a wider market, and today his Goop pieces are among the most actively sought MCM furniture objects on 1stDibs, Chairish, and in specialist galleries.

This drum end table features the characteristic cylindrical Goop base in sculpted resin with a laminate top — a versatile form that works equally well as a side table, end table, or drinks table. Compact and architectural, it is a statement piece that holds its own in any MCM interior.
