Kauri Earth table is designed by Renzo & Matteo Piano for Riva 1920 with iron base with tubular section lacquered and top with kauri blocks and transparent resin.
Available in five dimensions.
The Kauri Earth table is a stylized symbol of the Earth: the wood pieces represent the continents and the resin parts the oceans. It was launched in 2016, then the collection has been enriched and reinterpretated in 2019 proposing the Kauri Earth Square with top developed in square rather than in round shape.
Earth is conceived to be a stylized symbol of the Earth as it was in the origin; the colour of the ancient and precious Kauri wood and the transparence of the resin are able to create a special trick of lights and shadows. The peculiar base in dark iron, with visible weld joints, is inspired to the original project of the table “Antico” for the initiative Ground Zero…Ground Heroes; in fact it represents the nest of metal rebars remained after the Twin Towers collapsed.
Kauri Earth is not a table, it is a work of art.
