Collection Story
Origin
Kartell names Antonio Citterio con Oliver Löw as the designers of the Glossy tables. Its Glossy Oval page closes with a strip titled Discover the complete collection, which links Glossy XXL, Glossy Oval and Glossy Round.
Design Language
The family rests on a steel structure that, in the page's wording, uses a cross element between the legs. The page names three footprints, square, oval and round. The data sheet gives the main tops as stoneware with marble finish on chrome-plated, gold-plated or painted steel frames, and a further group of models with lacquered or laminated tops.
Key Pieces
- Glossy Round, a Ø 128 cm model on the data sheet
- Glossy Oval, shown on the page in White lacquered with a gold chrome steel structure
- Glossy XXL, a Ø 150 cm round model with its own data sheet
