Contemporary dining table SADDLE TONDO

walnutwalnut baseround

Overview
The dining table acts as a focal element in living and dining interiors. The Saddle family interprets this role through a strong sculptural identity where form and function converge. The SADDLE TONDO features a solid Canaletta walnut base formed from a central circular foot that branches into three upward sections supporting a round top. The design balances stability and lightness through organic lines and an interplay of solids and voids.
