The rippling waves of the Venetian waters surface in the extra-clear glass table top. In a tribute to the anciet glass art, the reflections of the waves are captured through a new complex type of workmanship.
The sheet is sand blasted to bring a matte finish to the glass and then fired again – a process that allows the creation of the distinctive appearance of the top, lending it texture and movement
The refinement of the glass is further enhanced by the bevelling – a perimeter edging that thins the contours and forms a transparent crystaline frame – a sophisticated detail that contrasts with the central part of the table.
Available in two sizes, Doge Laguna retains its iconic sculptural steel base that highlights the architectural character of the table.

DESIGNER- CARLO SCARPA
From architecture to works in glass, from design projects to preparing museum exhibitions, the work of Carlo Scarpa has always stood out in the unmistakable way in which it manages to bring together his love for materials, his attention to detail and his masterly elaboration of organic and Wrightian poetics.
For twenty years, right up until the second half of the Forties, he received numerous commissions to design, convert prepare buildings. Architect, designer and artist, Scarpa left the Venice Academy of Art in 1926 and began professional work, but continued to visit craftsmen’s’ workshops and Venetian master glassworkers
