Due to the nature of ceramic, no two tables are the same.
Unlike other materials that can be precision-engineered and
made uniform and perfect, ceramic retains a life and character
of its own – a compelling balance between imperfection and
clarity. The vivid colors, in combination with the high-gloss,
subtly textured surface, give the tables a sense of richness
and depth, whereas the soft, minimalistic shape, with its
elegantly crisp edges, adds lightness to the table.
The glaze’s high-shine surface creates a beautiful play of light
on the solid-color versions of the table, enhancing the effect
of the vibrant, high-shine finish. Black and white versions
of the Carmel Table are further enriched by the application
of a randomized spread of crystals after painting, which
introduces a mesmerizing pattern that changes dependent on
the viewer’s position. As well as giving the tables their vivid
color and finish, the glaze also protects the surface from UV,
liquids, grease, impact, and abrasions, making the Carmel
Table an ideal resting place for coffee cups, cocktail glasses,
and snack plates during long days in the sun.
Thanks to its material composition, the Carmel Table is a
hybrid design, able to enhance interior and exterior settings
alike. Set on sturdy, matt black legs in powder-coated
galvanized steel affixed to aluminum feet, the ceramic
tabletop is made from a single pressed piece of hard-wearing,
single-fired Italian stoneware – a material originally designed
for laboratory countertops and outdoor kitchens. This offers
an attractive and texturally rich aesthetic expression, while
also being strongly resistant to wear and tear.
