Desalto Tables

Technology and design, made in Italy by Desalto

Desalto began as a manufacturing company specializing in metalwork. This expertise pushes the boundaries of design and production.

Desalto’s mastery of metals and galvanic techniques offers designers the freedom to create architectural furniture and experiment with material combinations in innovative ways. From traditional to cutting-edge materials and with a wide range of finishes, Desalto provides an expansive playground for fresh ideas, free from constraints.

Design research applied to dining tables

Desalto’s expertise finds its perfect expression in dining table design. The table, as an object, represents a vast field of exploration for designers — a canvas where form and function seamlessly merge.

Desalto tables embody a unique focus on design solutions tailored to the needs of contemporary living. However, this functional approach never overshadows the formal elegance of their minimalist shapes and refined materials. The bold, sculptural yet functional design that defines Desalto is perfectly showcased in their tables, blending striking aesthetics with everyday usability.

Ciat Design’s selection of Desalto tables

If you’re looking for an eye-catching dining table that serves as the centerpiece of your home, explore the Desalto tables available in Ciat Design’s online shop. Here, you’ll find classic designs like the extendable Tender and Skin tables, the iconic sculpture-like Clay table, and the geometric Element table.

The Skin table embodies Desalto’s design philosophy with its ultra-thin surface and elaborate mechanism, extending the tabletop while maintaining elegance and perfect proportions. 

The Tender table, introduced in 1990, features a glass surface that expands the surrounding space around and a smooth mechanism for extending the top.

The Clay table consists of two cones balanced at their vertices. Its seemingly precarious stability is what makes it one of Desalto’s most recognizable and best-selling designs. In the Element table, Desalto’s expertise in metal processing shines, with a striking central feature connecting the tabletop and base. This daring design is made possible by the synergy between Tokujin Yoshioka’s vision and Desalto’s expertise.

Discover Desalto tables and transform your space with a quality piece of furniture that combines great visual impact with enduring functionality.
