Gabbiano Table by Pierluigi Ghianda, 1970s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

The Gabbiano table was designed and made by Pierluigi Ghianda in 1970. The table is called 'Gabbiano' for its innovative opening system. Thanks to the pin located in the center of the top, the table can easily close and open. Lifting the central pin activates the closing mechanism of the table thanks to two conductors that activate the metal hinges. The table supports are designed so that once the mechanism is activated, they can close in a wallet to facilitate the closure of the end of the support surface. The structure of the table is pearwood while its top is in Formica. The table is supported by 4 parallelepipeds joined together. The peculiarity of the table is its geometric rigor and executive perfection make this piece a practical object but at the same time elegant and modern. This beautiful specimen is part of one of the most famous creations of the Bottega Ghianda, where the rigor of execution is the master. When open, the table is 80 cm wide.
