Tentacle Leg Tables

This Il Pezzo Mancante Table Has Meandering Legs

— October 23, 2013 — Art & Design
The 'Il Pezzo 8 Table' by Il Pezzo Mancante has legs that twist around one another and make it seem like it shouldn't even be standing at all. But the sand-cast metallic legs manage to provide just the right amount of support and wonder for the furniture piece.

The top of the table has a beautiful meandering shape that is just organic enough to match the base. The tentacular legs support a beautiful tabletop of solid 2.75" walnut, which seems quite ordinary but the contrast is beautiful. The sand-cast table legs have three types of finishings: nickel, black and rose bronze, which is perfect at picking up the warm tones in the wooden top.

The Il Pezzo 8 Table also is available in three sizes, which would make striking additions to any dining room.
Trend Themes
1. Organic Table Design Trend - Il Pezzo Mancante's meandering leg design demonstrates an opportunity for creating other furniture pieces with organic and nature-inspired aesthetic.
2. Mixed Material Furniture Trend - The contrast between the sand-cast metallic legs and the solid walnut top shows an opportunity for woven together two different materials beautifully for additional furniture pieces.
3. Multi-functional Table Trend - Il Pezzo 8 Table's size variation shows a potential in the furniture industry for multi-functional tables.
