American brand Maiden Home presents the design of the Ria coffee table, which is defined by its intricate use of Italian materials and craftsmanship. The table is made with an elegant stone and wooden piece. The travertine stone is sourced from a quarry in Tivoli, as it is carefully cut and then honed and sealed in a family workshop.
The art of stone cutting has been passed down through the generations at this workshop specifically. The stone is known for its soft golden tone, and it is resting on top of a smooth Canaletto walnut set of legs. Overall, these create a rounded feeling with organic forms inspired by nature. The legs are also made by hand in Italy.
