Thanks to the production technology used, it is remarkably light and does not contain any screws or metal pieces. Together with the bar stool, it creates a set with the Merano armchair.
In a table, oval means perfect: no edge, no head of the table, no diner and, above all, a form expanded in space. Antonia Astori balance then the top elegant simplicity with a sculptural base made of a malleable as contemporary material.
