Know before you buy
The spatulate clay top features a tactile, organic finish that feels earthy and substantial. Because it is applied by hand, each table has unique variations in texture and tone, giving it a raw, artisanal quality.
The clay top is a natural material and should be treated with care. We recommend using coasters and placemats to prevent staining or scratching, and cleaning spills immediately with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
Yes, the Giano Argile typically arrives in separate components to ensure safe transport. Professional assembly is recommended due to the weight of the clay top and the precision required to secure it to the steel base.
Choose a round table if you want to encourage conversational flow and have a square or open-plan dining area. The oval option is better suited for rectangular rooms or larger dining spaces where you need to accommodate more guests along the sides.
Absolutely. The steel base is engineered specifically to support the weight of the clay top while maintaining a balanced, sculptural profile. It provides a rigid, durable foundation that prevents wobbling.
