Story
From the table to hospitality
The word Desco goes back to the table as an object around which one sits while eating, and also to the traditional practice, embedded in Italian culture, of hospitality through food. The Desco Outdoor tables are by Antonio Citterio, 2022.

Its uncluttered lines call to mind sturdiness, tradition and practicality. A solid iroko base takes a slatted wood top or one of five stone types, and the feet are cast aluminum.
