A table like this, though in blue, was listed on eBay not too long ago. There was no info about the designer og manufacturer in the item description, however the seller stated the table as being from Italy.

Thanks.
I agree. I think it is from Europe. I have never seen one like this. It is very nice made too, just 4 welds in the corners. The paint looks to be a kind of lacquer. I would say it is 40 years old or less but very hard to determine with this material. Thanks for your help.

Very similar.
A friend just emailed me with this link. Very similar . I think it could be my lucky day !!!! Mathieu Mategot ? Can any body document this is Mategot piece ? Perhaps someone has the Mategot book ? Any thought or opinion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I do not see any similarities with his works eighther. So how come it is sold by this dealer using his name? I am about to call him to find out. Did you check this link ? My friend also sent a picture of the Mategot book . There is a piece of metal on the cover with the same perforated steel. I am really confused about all this. Thanks.
