    Hi! I recently got this table, and saw that it is in the exact style of Vladamir Kagan's Radius Table. When I was doing research, I saw that professionals and auctioneers even have a hard time authenticating Kagan's pieces.
    It is solid wood, and the metal is very heavy (I believe it is aluminum).
    Let me know what you guys think! I will also include some more photos in the comments. Thanks!

    Thats a toughie. Could be 1960s , could be 1980s . Maybe compare measurements with other examples ? They seem to sell well regardless.

    Yeah, I have been having a little trouble placing it into a decade.. I saw some similar ones that are from the 1960s, so figured it would be from around then. Another one on a website was identical and had the same measurements. I will upload some more pics!

    Just getting around to being able to look at this thread on my PC. Phone is inadequate for viewing pictures. I do not believe your table to be solid wood. There is no end-grain visible on the tops of the three supports.

    Otherwise, I think your table compares favorably with some others seen on-line. Here is one that is obviously veneer.

    In looking at several examples, I don't see any that appear to be solid wood.

    Hi! Thanks so much for the info. I was wondering about that, since the other examples I had seen online looked similar and made me question whether they are solid or not, especially since i could not find any info regarding this about the original table.
    I am not very familiar with the details of solid wood vs. engineered wood, but i did notice when looking at the bottom of the table, it has a sort of "layered" look to it. I will include a photo below as well!

    Yes. Laminated or plywood, with a veneer over it.
