Axis table, Gabriele and Oscar Buratti - Acerbis Design

Designer

An ultra-slim design, which continually surprises the eye with shapes that are light and airy from one angle, or purified and monumental from another, a marvel of optical illusion created with the simplistic and playful minimalism characteristic of designers Gabriele and Oscar Buratti.
The internationally-awarded duo has created a unique table with four slim legs unusually placed at 90 degree angles, resulting in optical effects ranging from near weightlessness to firm stability, while permitting flexible seating arrangements.
With the extra-thin top, the table is made of composite material veneered with precious woods, or in back-lacquered glass. The top is supported by four legs in reflective polished stainless or brushed burnished steel, and placed onto opposite perpendicular axes.

Black eucalyptus ES47

Eucalyptus wood is a valuable wood with a light brown colour and pinkish shades, but when exposed to smoking it changes its colour to dark brown/bronze. With further processing, very elegant black shades can be obtained. After being treated, it is a very durable and stable wood, ideal for furniture making.

Eucalyptus ES48

Swamp ash ES57

Special veneer identified as "fossil" because they are obtained from logs extracted from the ground, where they have been preserved under layers of clay for hundreds of years. This long natural process, gives the wood a unique, precious appearance, with surprising colours and textures. The ageing of the wood can cause cracks and splits, which are filled and repaired during processing, but not eliminated as they are signs of time that testify to the antiquity and uniqueness of the material.

Dark stained walnut ES59

Canaletto walnut has a medium tone with soft colour variations, making it one of the most popular woods in recent years. The dark colour shade enhances the value and elegance of the material.
