The Aperitivo Coffee Table has been designed by Liu Jo Living as a decidedly modern take on the humble furniture style that's crafted with entertaining, appetizers and serving in mind.
The coffee table comes in the form of a set of nesting tables that are named as a nod to the Italian ritual of sharing a drink before a meal to whet one's appetite. The cheerful tables are constructed with a set of metallic frame supports accented by hand-glazed ceramic tabletops crafted by Bologna-based ceramist Frederica Bubani.
Head of Commercial Development Briganti Luca commented on the Aperitivo Coffee Table to Homecrux saying, "Aperitivo is designed precisely to use the large ceramic plate as a tray for Aperitivo courses for one’s guests. It is the perfect coffee table set to give a glam touch to your living.”
