Element Dining Table

An iconic table, Element is a symbol of purity and poetry, the essence of the visionary designer Tokujin Yoshioka's style. The central support, delicately balanced between the two horizontal elements, de es gravity, suspended between earth and sky, between the past and the future. 

Perfect embodiment of dynamic balance, between lightness and solidity, made even more concrete by the black concrete finish. A particularly complex engineering project that expresses all of Desalto's experience in metalworking.
