Story
A storage space built into the top
Zanotta presents Taschino under the heading From design to product. The page describes the storage space as a real lockbox for personal items, made of cowhide and built into the thin, linear metal top.
Leather against a linear metal top
According to Zanotta, the cowhide contrasts with the metal top. The page places the design in line with Zanotta's tradition of craftsmanship and suggests it may suit the bedroom area.
