Their soft, familiar lines embody the skilled craftsmanship and artisan know-how of De Castelli, which has revived the traditional technique of manually hammering and shaping copper. The tables are thus a nod to a tradition that, given a contemporary interpretation, is manifested in products that harmoniously integrate with everyday settings. The new DeNuance finish from De Castelli further enhances the copper tops, giving each piece an organic, natural look through the combination of fire, oxidation and pigments. DeNuance and Verderame breathe life into a fresh combination of tones inspired by water and the way it moves. De Castelli metals now have a new look, rich in depth and an infinite range of hues.DE CASTELLI“HARD COUTURE”Faithful to its decision to reinstate the special role of metal in design and experimentation, De Castelli infuses artisan ideas and workmanship into industrial processes, leading to entirely original results. The encounter with design inspires an approach to materials founded upon respect for their potential, be it hidden or obvious, which emerges slowly in a collection of pieces that, despite being part of a series, remain unique.Unique not only for the hand that has created them, but also for the singular cultural path that focuses on the aesthetic (and not just practical) value of the primordial material with which De Castelli shapes living spaces.A BESPOKE APPROACHEach object, even in the repetition of form, is a creative act in and of itself, one that incorporates a heritage of constantly-evolving expertise and research. The equation that relegates ‘cold’ metals to the margins of furnishing projects is thus overturned, bringing iron, brass and copper, in their infinite variations and finishes, to the centre of an entirely renewed stage, allowing them to finally shine with their own light.SUSTAINABILITYDe Castelli has always been committed to making the entire production cycle increasingly sustainable, aware that metal, the material with which its business identifies itself, is precious and must be treated with care, without waste.PEOPLE FIRSTThe wide spaces of the De Castelli headquarters in Crocetta del Montello (TV) allow those who work to enjoy environments where order, cleanliness and safety are always maintained and guaranteed. An attitude of attention and respect for people that has led to the shared ethical code.
