A striking dining table that moulds the warmth and essence of organic materials into one sculptural beauty, the 452 La Rotonda Dining Table boasts a solid ashwood base, consisting of three robust legs that intersect to perfection. The perfect pedestal to support its luxurious marble tabletop, the joints between the three legs are carved into the wood, thanks to Cassina’s extraordinary carpentry craftsmanship, where technical quality matches aesthetic refinement. Not only a practical dining table for gathering family or friends but also a stunning work of natural art, this exquisite table is ideally utilised in a dining room or open-plan space, supplementing style, class and charm to your home.
