Designer: Giotto Stoppino
Maker: Kartell [ Italy ]
Year: 1968
Size: H 370 x D/W 480 [ When Stacked ]
Condition Report: vintage condition. faded colour all over, with some discoloured patches. lower table has repaired damage to one of the feet. Some chipping to edges in places. Still present nicely overall.
.
Kartell’s nesting tables were a first step in developing the idea of a single piece of injected moulded plastic being all that is needed to create beautiful and functional furniture design.
As a new material of the time, the ability to achieve a one step manufacturing process was invaluable to both cost and production time, and is an idea which has now become ingrained in the way we produce objects today.
Soft geometric curves create a lip around all edges of the piece, giving it strength and structure, while maintaining a sense of lightness in form.
An excellent bold tone, slightly muted with age and wear.
