Product Details

Product Description

A sophisticated mahogany coffee table with a smoked glass top designed by the renowned duo Afra & Tobia Scarpa for Cassina exudes an air of elegance and refinement. Their designs have garnered a new generation of fans in the 21st century, as they prioritize modernism fused with comfort and pared-back style. The Scarpas' designs seamlessly complement classical as well as cutting-edge interiors. Tobia Scarpa, hailing from Venice, son of celebrated architect-designer Carlo Scarpa, and his wife Afra began their collaboration with Venini glassworks in Murano in the 1950s, later establishing their design office in Montebelluna in 1960. They designed for top companies such as Flos, Cassina, B&B Italia, and Knoll, and their work spanned a range of materials and technologies, including furniture, lighting, glass, interiors, and architecture. The Scarpas were also involved with various projects for the Benetton clothing company, including the construction of their textile factory in Treviso in 1964. Tobia Scarpa won the Compasso d'Oro prize in 1970 for the Soriana Armchair for Cassina, and other significant designs include the 1960 Bastiano collection for Gavina, the 1966 Coronado Armchair series for B&B Italia, and the 1973 Papillion Lamp for Flos. Sacred in museum and gallery exhibitions, Tobia and Afra Scarpa's impressive body of work was recognized with many awards, including the 1992 iF Design Award.
