Product description
We have re-discovered a mechanism invented by the legendary Bepi Fiori, who was at the helm of the creative group of Bernini's Research Centre from the Seventies to the Nineties. The movement is like an optical diaphragm, which expands as it rotates. By a
pplying the same principle to an extending table, you can alter the size of the table top while keeping the original shape. The diagonal goes from cm 140 - when closed - to cm 173, when fully extended. In practical terms it goes from an eight to twelve se
ater, thanks to an innovative oblate circular shaped table top. The novelty of the project is the table extending system as well as being the main feature of the product. The extensions are vertically integrated into the metallic structure of the five leg
s (one for each extension), when the table is closed, which give it a strong personality and planning vigour. When the table is open, it appears light and streamlined. "Insieme Ancora" is available in several versions: from the American walnut w
ith a glossy-black metal structure, to the "total black" or the "total white" with glass tops and black or white metal structure. Handcrafted details by master cabinet-makers, a hallmark of Bernini design, enrich the table and give it
absolute versatility in any context.
