Big Wave Round Dining Table
Big Wave Round Dining Table
By Fiam Italia | Designer: Ludovica & Roberto Palomba
The Big Wave Round Dining Table by Fiam Italia, designed by Ludovica & Roberto Palomba, is a sculptural centerpiece that combines refined elegance with innovative glass craftsmanship. Its circular form brings balance and harmony to the dining space, making it ideal for intimate gatherings and contemporary interiors.
The absolute soul of the Big Wave Round is its massive, sculptural pedestal. Instead of standard metal or wood legs, the base is constructed from separate, monumentally thick (30 mm) blocks of Fiam's proprietary DV-Glass. The base elements are intricately crafted with vertical stripes of fused lamellar glass. Depending on the perspective from which you view the table, the glass seems to shift and move. It captures the energy and fluidity of crashing ocean waves or melting ice, completely changing its visual weight as you walk around the room, creating the optical illusion. You can choose a highly sophisticated, moody aesthetic with Transparent Smoked or Transparent Bronzed glass, or make a vivid, high-fashion statement with Multicolor colored glass stripes that bounce stunning, tinted reflections across your dining room floor.
To perfectly balance the icy, translucent drama of the glass base, the Big Wave Round offers a variety of stunning tabletop finishes, allowing you to dictate the exact mood of your dining space: A massive 15 mm thick tempered glass top, back-lacquered in deep monochrome colors like Graphite Grey, Dark Brown, or Black. This provides a high-gloss, sleek reflection that mirrors the room above; For lovers of material contrast, you can crown the glass base with a rich, veneered wood top in a moody Tobacco finish, brilliantly pairing the warmth of natural timber with the cold brilliance of the glass below; If you prefer a raw, tactile, wabi-sabi aesthetic, the top can be hand-spatulated with Ecomalta (a fine-grained, eco-friendly resin/clay mixture) in earthy tones like Tobacco MTA or Absolute Black MNE. It creates a stunning, matte, stucco-like finish that completely softens the room and begs to be touched. THe Big Wave Round comes in three sizes, starting at 55” for 4 to 5 people, 62” for 6 to 7 people, and 71” for 8 to 10 people.
The Big Wave dining table is designed for a home that wants an undeniable "wow factor." It is a piece of livable, interactive art. By taking a material usually perceived as cold and flat—glass—and giving it massive thickness, undulating texture, and striking depth, Fiam Italia has created a dining centerpiece that brings a constant sense of movement, emotion, and architectural brilliance to your daily life.
