Product Details

Product Description

Witness the remarkable dining table created by the masterful Italian duo, Afra & Tobia Scarpa, featuring an exquisite design that is rare and highly sought after. The base of the table is constructed with electro-coated stainless steel sheets, showcasing luminous colors that shift and change when viewed from different angles. The base takes on an iridescent range of blues and blacks, forming a geometric shape that is both visually stunning and unique. The hexagon tabletop angles are straightened and shaped inwards to create an elongated top that can accommodate more guests. To ensure the table's balance, two concrete weights are included with the original purchase. Featuring handles for easy replacement, these heavy pieces remain hidden within the base. Thanks to the Scarpa's innovative creativity and the utilization of new materials during the 1980s, this dining table stands as a testament to their exceptional skill and keen eye for aesthetics. Afra (1937-2011) and Tobia (1935-) Scarpa are a renowned duo of Italian architects and designers of the postmodern era. With their distinctive modernist aesthetic, their designs prioritize elegance, comfort, and classical influence while showcasing their deep understanding of materials. They have collaborated with iconic brands such as Flos Gavina, B&B Italia, and Knoll and have been honored with countless awards, including the esteemed Compasso d'Oro and the International Forum Design. Their works can be found in major museums worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Musée du Louvre, and the National Museum of Design in New York. The table includes two original B&B Italia concrete weights that discreetly uphold the metal base, making for a seamlessly stunning design.
