Designed in 1963 by the influential Italian architect Carlo De Carli, the Tavolo a Dischi dining table is an elegant marriage of function and form, combining structural innovation, expressive materiality, and practical excellence.
The round table is ingeniously constructed from 3cm-thick FSC® Mix-certified birch plywood discs of varying diameters and from other responsible sources (FSC® C176589), stacked around a concealed metal core, to form an elegant curve that supports a generous tabletop in walnut veneer, now available in two sizes.
A burnished brass-toned steel band at the base adds material contrast while providing protection. Equally suited to dining, meetings, or gatherings, the Tavolo a Dischi is a centerpiece that brings people together, fostering connection and conversation.

Though simple in its silhouette, the Tavolo a Dischi’s construction is complex in form, structure, and aesthetic detail. Stacked 3 cm-thick discs of FSC® Mix-certified birch plywood (FSC® C176589) conceal a cylindrical metal core, which lends the table stability. The base is accented by a protective band of burnished brass-toned steel, creating an engaging contrast with the wood’s material expression.

About the designer:
Carlo De Carli was a central figure in Italian design during the mid-20th century. He played a key role at the Milan Triennale and the Politecnico di Milano’s Faculty of Architecture, where he passionately advocated for local furniture production as a cornerstone of Italy’s traditional craft culture.
One of Italy’s leading furniture producers of the time, Vittorio Bonacina, shared De Carli’s vision of a unified approach to Italy’s furniture industry, and commissioned him to design several pieces for his company. The Poltrona Tria in rattan emerged from this collaboration – one of De Carli’s final furniture designs before he dedicated himself entirely to research and teaching.
