Table Bedrock Plank C

Bedrock Plank Table by Riva1920 by Green Living

handmade in Italy

An extraordinary dining table that combines simplicity with ingenuity. To achieve the full width of the two adjacent planks, the plank is not cut in the middle as usual. To use the plank in this way, very careful treatment of the wood is necessary.

Riva1920 represents ancient craftsmanship with great knowledge and experience. The surfaces are fragrant and velvety soft, beautifully highlighting the natural material.

Riva1920 takes the time to store the full logs on its own premises for a long time. After the initial rough cut, they are stored a second time. Finally, a third storage location is set up in the workshop. In this way, the "consent" of the wood for the unusual construction of this table is gently obtained. On the outside, you can feel the anatomy of the natural tree edge, in the middle, a small gap is left open as a contrast in the parallel joint.

The base is made of raw, solid iron, worked by hand and oiled to prevent rust. Viewed from the side, the tabletop appears to float, as the base looks very delicate in profile. In this design, the archaic is naturally combined with lightness and modernity. This table was designed for Riva by star architect Terry Dwan, who runs her office in Milan with Antonio Citterio.

Construction

Solid oak or walnut planks are fastened to a frame made of pure iron. The iron frame is hand-forged and waxed.

Special features

Only the bark has been removed from the edges, allowing the organic shape of the trunk to remain visible. The width can therefore vary by up to 10 cm! Furthermore, we would like to inform you that any changes, cracks or splits, both upon receipt of the goods and in the subsequent period, are to be regarded as completely normal and typical characteristics for a product made entirely of solid wood and cannot be accepted as a defect for complaints.
