The list of iconic coffee tables that every design buff already knows is well established. It includes your Eileen Grays, your Noguchis, your Marcel Breuers. They're the sort of coffee tables that coffee table books are written about, that are on show in galleries —even museums.
But there is a whole other generation of iconic furniture that is less well known, but that deserves icon status simply because it's less on the radar. They're by brands you might well have heard of (like Roche Bobois) or by designers you almost certainly have (like Yves Klein), but for whatever reason haven't made their way into the collective consciousness yet.
