Desalto - Clay round table d120 Base matt white Top Carrara marble

Sculpture table, perfect synthesis of beauty and harmony of proportions, presented at Salone 2015. Iconic Design Award 2015, Good Design Award 2016, Red Dot Award for the category Product Design 2016. In the encounter of two volumes, the perfect balance of one on the other is achieved. Two cones of different shape meet at their opposite vertices defying gravity in a seemingly unstable balance, but giving shape to the most classic of round tables. Clay is the exception that becomes rule,  like design.

Desalto

Desalto is a company that for nearly 30 years has been spreading around the world a product idea based on constant technical and technological research focused on greater functionality. 30 years of activity make Desalto a young brand, but also a historic one. The company boasts of one and the other dimension: a young spirit capable of combing together iconic chairs and complements, like graphic signs traced in the air, with tables as adaptable as everyday life is. But also of a story which began in 1990when the four Orsenigo brothers imagine a reality that responded to the times, making use of the collaboration of designers.

Different visions which embrace the same corporate philosophy that is continually updated through fundamental values of harmony, expressive,elegance, clean design and originality. Made in Italy, quality and production capacity of excellence are some of the main characteristics that have made Desalto famous over time and of Made in Italy Desalto perfectly embodies some central values. A family of entrepreneurs and a territory representing, in the design view, an unrepeatable system keeping product quality primary.

Each design is the result of our country's handcrafted creativity, particularly the unique expression of the Brianza area, with an internal and external production chain controlled at every stage to ensure maximum preservation of value over time.
