This table was designed by Parisi in 1955 for a villa near Como.‎ The Cassina Research and Development Centre has conducted a careful study of the original model to bring this unique project into serial production.‎ The slender metal tubular structure of the Olimpino table holds a rectangular monolithic sheet of glass that allows the articulated metal structure below to be admired.‎ The two pairs of upright legs, characterised by a typical Y-shape, have internal upper arms that converge to join under the top while the external arms diverge to hold and elegantly support it; a double crossbar gives strength to the legs and divides close to the edge to form a double V shape.‎ Its uniqueness is further defined by elegant arrow-shaped wooden feet that nicely contrast with the metal of its legs and crossbar.‎ Expertly designed, it has a bold appearance making it highly recognisable.‎Materials- tubular steel frame with a 20x20mm square section painted matt black;- 15mm thick top in tempered transparent float glass or lacquered underneath in taupe or petroleum; 12mm thick top in tempered smoked glass for the 240x105cm version only;- support in micro-cast brass with a brushed matt finish, brushed matt chrome or painted matt black;- metal parts in satin matt brass, satin matt chrome or painted matt black;- feet in solid Canaletto walnut or stained black ash wood in a low gloss finish.‎Model for sale:Table 240 x 105 x H 74 cm with matt black metal structure and foot in canaletto walnut.‎ Flat glass top.‎
