Ayana Tables
Ayana Tables 1

Description

The table stands out for its oval top in serpentine, a typical stone of the Alps. The supporting structure in natural teak appears light but is extremely robust, able to resist weather and support the heavy top. Ayana is a project with a green soul. The teak used to make the structures is FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council) and all the materials that make up the various elements of the series, at the end of the product's life cycle, can be separated and disposed of with respect for the environment.
