Calder

Overview

Calder is a family of coffee tables designed by Rodolfo Dordoni for Minotti. Its tops are wood or marble, and its bases are thin metal frames with a lower shelf.

Three top versions are built on a 10 x 10 mm metal frame with a 2 mm lower shelf finished to match and protective felt glides. The wooden top is a 50 mm honeycomb panel in ebony or oak veneer or in lacquer. The two marble tops are 18 mm thick, in Nero Marquina on a matt Black powder varnished epoxy frame, or in Afyon on a lapped metal frame with a protective glossy transparent lacquer.
