Sarpi Dining table by Carlo Scarpa

Carlo Scarpa designed this masterpiece of a table in 1974, as a successor to the Doge, which is included in the collection known as Ultrarazionale. While citing some of the same material characteristics as its predecessor, the base of the Sarpi is up ended compared to the Doge, while the entire piece is smaller so it can fit into smaller spaces. The drawn bushed metal frame is lacquered over with protective transparent gloss and held together with visible burnished screws. The octagonal shape glass rests over the brass-plated base. This early version was not produced by Cassina but is an all original 1970s production piece manufactured by Simon.
