Series of round low tables in solid wood. Orio is the result of a unique and careful processing that allows the turning of both the legs and the disc top. The “cut” that characterizes the top of the two tables represents a functional novelty and allows you to insert and hide the electric cable of a lamp or a battery charger and at the same time highlights the materiality of the wood species used – solid walnut and ash, stained.
The proper names chosen to name Internoitaliano objects are a tribute to towns and villages belonging to a minor Italy, never celebrated, but equally real and representative of a suffused and authentic national identity. Orio al Serio is an Italian town of 1,734 inhabitants in the province of Bergamo in Lombardy.
