Ettore Oval Dining Table Quickship
Ettore Oval Dining Table Quickship
By Pianca | Designer: Pier Luigi Frighetto
The Ettore Oval Dining Table by the premier Venetian furniture house Pianca is a breathtaking masterpiece of functional sculpture. Designed by the acclaimed design duo Calvi Brambilla, the table serves as a profound, playful homage to master designer Ettore Sottsass and the rule-breaking Memphis Group movement. It transforms the concept of a dining room anchor from a static piece of furniture into an expressive work of art.
While standard custom orders from a European studio carry a multi-month lead time, the Pianca Quickship Program bypasses the standard production backlog completely. This pre-configured variant is stocked and ready to deliver to your home in just 3 to 5 weeks.
The visual magic of the Ettore table relies on a brilliant, ironic assembly of three classic, primary geometric elements that create an unexpected architectural tension. The table features a single, monumental central pillar pedestal. However, rather than remaining thick all the way to the floor, the column dramatically tapers inward at the very bottom. This "roly-poly toy" inspiration gives a massive structural element an incredibly light, airy visual weight. Grounding the table is a flat, ultra-low profile circular floor disc. Because the disc is finished in a high-sheen metal, it acts like a mirror—reflecting the tapered point of the column and completely fooling the eye into believing the entire 8-foot table is levitating or precariously balanced.
Moving away from traditional rectangles, the tabletop is sculpted into an elegant, soft oval. This curved shape allows for fluid conversation sightlines and effortless spatial flow in open-concept dining zones. The Ettore Oval Table features a grand, commanding footprint built to maximize guest capacity while entirely eliminating the awkward table legs that traditionally interfere with chairs.
