Spyder Glass Dining Table
By Cattelan Italia | Designer: Philip Jackson
The Spyder Glass Dining Table is a bold architectural centerpiece that balances transparency with sculptural strength. Its signature crisscross steel base forms a dynamic “X” structure, creating a sense of movement while providing exceptional stability and visual lightness.
If you are a design purist who believes that a spectacular structural base should be celebrated, not hidden, the Spyder Glass Dining Table is the ultimate expression of modern Italian luxury. Designed by Philip Jackson for Cattelan Italia, this iconic piece is a masterclass in transparency and kinetic geometry. By pairing the legendary Spyder base with a crystal-clear glass top, the table turns your dining room into an architectural gallery, allowing light to flood the space and giving you an unobstructed view of a true engineering masterpiece.
The undisputed soul of this table is its famous X-shaped base. Instead of hiding at the corners, the legs form an intricate, heavy-duty web of steel beams that crisscross beneath the surface. Because glass is entirely transparent, the base remains the undeniable star of the show. The magic of the Spyder base is how it plays with space and movement. The complex, angular geometry means the base never looks the same from two different spots. From the head of the table, the steel lines look dense and formidable; take a step to the side, and the structure beautifully unfolds into an airy, dynamic starburst. You can customize the steel to dictate the mood of your room. Ground it with rich, light-catching embossed finishes like Graphite, Black, or Titanium, or elevate it to runway-ready luxury with hand-finished metallics like Brushed Bronze or Brushed Grey.
The glass top is the ultimate way for open-concept layouts or smaller dining spaces. It eliminates visual clutter, allowing the floor and the base to show through, which instantly makes your dining area feel larger, brighter, and more expansive. Meanwhile, thanks to the precision-cut with flawless, polished edges, the glass catches the ambient light of your room, throwing subtle reflections that add a quiet, upscale sparkle to your space.
The Spyder Glass Dining Table is designed for a home that views furniture as a form of art. It recognizes that a dining table doesn’t have to feel heavy to feel substantial. The heavy-duty steel base anchors the room with undeniable masculine elegance, while the pristine glass top invites a clean, minimalist energy into your home. It is a stunning marriage of industrial geometry and transparent luxury—perfect for long, sophisticated dinner parties where the design itself becomes a conversation starter.
