Sambonet Gio Ponti Centerpiece - Round - Ø 24,0 cm - h 22,0 cm
Sophisticated design objects by Gio Ponti that, in addition to perfect lines, feature trending colours to change the look of a table setting or simply to lend a character to any type of location. Unpublished up to 2013 – when Sambonet finally brought the project to light – the Centrepiece was immediately awarded the most prestigious international Design recognitions, soon becoming one of the most representative creations that the Master has dedicated to the table.
PVD, which stands for Physical Vapour Deposition, gives the objects exceptional colours and shades. It consists of the deposition of metallic particles through vaporization in a vacuum chamber. The coating is welded on an atomic level to the stainless steel, giving the material greater hardness and resistance to rubbing and corrosion, thereby preventing the formation of rust or oxides. Thanks to the use of non-toxic materials such as titanium and zirconium, PVD is also used in the biomedical field as scalpels or surgical blades.
Father of the design made in Italy, Gio Ponti is the greatest exponent of Italian rationalism. Sambonet deliveries his perfect-shape projects.
