Vela Venetian Terrazzo and Brass Dining Table by R&D De Castelli

Vela is a table-sculpture that explores and enhances the different facets and uses of metal. The stately oval top in Venetian terrazzo made of white marble has been crafted in collaboration with Laboratorio Morseletto to embrace precious inserts of brass in an ethereal composition, a burst of petals floating upon the wind. The table top is juxtaposed with the sculptural three-dimensionality of the base: soft, sinuous folds unfurl and alternate to create coves that rise into an intricate conical trunk, delicate and solid at the same time.
