Fragile Table

The 'Fragile Opposites' coffee table is unique in its kind, created from granite blocks from a quarry outside Ventimiglia in northern Italy. Here, 400 kilos of stone mass rests on a transparent frame of multicolored glass. The polished surface of the upper and lower parts contrasts with the natural roughness of the edges, and causes the light to be caught in different ways. The stone furniture is symbolic in several ways, and the contrasts of the materials are in focus. It is a metaphor for our strange reality, where the fate of the entire world depends on thin, fragile agreements between countries.
