529 Rio Cassina

Brand: Cassina

Product category: Cassina Small Tables

Designer: Charlotte Perriand

Availability: On request

It was in 1962 when designer Charlotte Perriand created the 529 Rio coffee table for Cassina.

This iconic furniture design is a perfect example of how form and function can harmoniously coexist. The top of a coffee table is its most distinguishing feature. A branch of six rays of varying widths emerges from the top's circular shape, giving way to the six distinct components below.

This is accomplished by alternating between two profiles for the work's perimeter that converge on a single center of gravity. This is not an abstract concept but is instead implemented physically through a small opening that serves as the work's fulcrum.

The foundational framework is made entirely out of solid wood and has six legs that are arranged in a diagonal pattern to provide support for each component. The Paglia Di Vienna textile inlays in the solid wood countertop are a testament to the quality of the Cassina brand. The exterior of the board is coated with a steam-bent wood veneer.

A re-edition of the top was done by Cassina, and now it can be acquired with either a white or black marble finish.
