Coral Beach Dining Table
By Fiam Italia | Designer: Mac Stopa
The Coral Beach Dining Table by Fiam Italia is a striking fusion of artistic design and advanced glass craftsmanship. Inspired by the organic textures found in coral formations, the table features a distinctive sculptural surface that transforms a functional dining piece into a captivating design statement. If you want a dining table that entirely redefines what is possible with modern materials, the Coral Beach (designed by the visionary architect Mac Stopa for Fiam Italia) is a breathtaking feat of design and manufacturing.
The absolute soul of this table is its mesmerizing, tactile surface. Instead of a standard, flat sheet of glass, the Coral Beach features a massive 15 mm thick tempered glass top that has been treated with Fiam’s traditional high-temperature fusion process. The glass is painstakingly formed to create an intricate, raised 3D pattern across the entire surface. It catches ambient room lighting and overhead chandeliers beautifully, creating the visual effect of sparkling water ripples or windswept sand. It is incredibly organic and begs to be touched.
You can order the top in pure, transparent glass, which beautifully distorts the floor and the base below it like looking through a clear pool of water. Alternatively, you can have the underside back-lacquered in rich, metallic shades (like Brilliant Black, Night Blue, Moka, or Anthracite Grey). This opaque finish turns the textured glass into a deep, shimmering, metallic lagoon.
To ensure the highly artistic glass top remains the focal point of the room, the base is deliberately designed to be sleek, architectural, and grounded. The table is supported by a heavy-duty painted metal base that branches out into an angular "X" shape at the top. If you choose the transparent glass option, this geometric crisscross is fully visible from an aerial view, creating a brilliant contrast between the rigid, straight lines of the steel and the organic, flowing texture of the glass. The metal base is finished in sophisticated, matte tones—either Lava Grey or Metallic Greige. These muted, earthy finishes perfectly complement the high-gloss drama of the tabletop without fighting it for attention.
The Coral Beach dining table is designed for a home that views furniture as functional, livable art. It beautifully marries the futuristic, 3D-printed aesthetic of Mac Stopa with the old-world artisan glassmaking techniques of Fiam Italia. It anchors your room with a profound sense of nature and movement, completely elevating your daily meals and holiday hosting with unparalleled, textural brilliance.
