Mesa Ellipse table is designed by Lella and Massimo Vignelli for Poltrona Frau with elliptical marble top, supported by an HPL lacquered white or black (with Fior di Pesco marble). Conical base available either in matching marble or upholstered in leather or ColorSphere® leather, with an internal steel frame stabilized by a counterweight system.Top and base joined by a painted steel tube that supports a metal frame, closed off with a matte black painted aluminum sheet. Available in two sizes.
With Mesa Ellipse, Poltrona Frau elevates the Mesa project into a unique design statement—the most refined expression of the collection. The result of a meticulous philological study of the original drawings by Lella and Massimo Vignelli, Mesa Ellipse stands out for its elliptical shape, which reinterprets the geometric purity of the original design and transforms it into a sculptural, visually striking presence. The marble top, with its elegant and slender silhouette, takes center stage, contrasting with the solidity of the painted steel central column—a perfect balance between visual lightness and structural rigor.
Like the round Mesa table and other models in the Mesa Due line, Mesa Ellipse shares a bold, iconic presence. The ellipse becomes an architectural gesture—a perfect synthesis of form and function that propels the collection into a new aesthetic dimension. While Mesa Due expands the range of functional contexts—with bistro, round and rectangular dining tables, Lazy Susan, and integrated power tower—Mesa Ellipse focuses on the essence of design, emphasizing the tactile and visual impact of marble and an essential yet character-rich structure.
