Boboli Table

The Boboli table designed by Rodolfo Dordoni for Cassina is char­ac­ter­ized by its geomet­ri­cally ordered lines. The struc­tural chal­lenge was to ensure the stabil­ity of the slim-line twisted uprights that form the base. These uprights, both load-bearing and deco­ra­tive, pay homage to the canons of the clas­si­cal Italian garden, where plants were often trained verti­cally. The sinuous form of these aluminum legs confer a sculp­tural look to the design, where rigor and imag­i­na­tion come together to chal­lenge the limits and the very nature of the mate­r­ial from which they are made. 

Cassina presented the latest iter­a­tion of the Boboli table in 2016, further improv­ing its stabil­ity and resis­tance by fixing the table-top to the base. The painted aluminum base is avail­able in matte black, gold chrome and gunmetal. A new version with 200 cm diam­e­ter and optional Lazy Susan is also available.
