Apologies for
the poor pictures, the table is so large I haven't had space to picture if
properly, the legs remove for ease of transport, the original middle bar was
lost and has been replaced, it really doesn't matter as you can't see under the
table anyway
The condition
is excellent throughout, the odd little mark from being delivered but otherwise
it’s a fine example

Quality Our quest for quality in every aspect has always ensured
excellence at B&B Italia.
The living room. From classical to modern.
When the industry encounters handcrafting quality, the outcome is a
success story. Maxalto's story commenced in 1975, and is closely related with
architects Afra and Tobia Scarpa, who designed all the collections until 1992
and the current production facility too.
Home furnishings conceived by Afra and Tobia Scarpa were soon
acknowledged as the landmark of Italian design. A collection of precious wood
furniture entirely “made in Italy.” In the age of plastic, when
enthusiasm suggested other experimentation modes, the decision to use wood was
both extremely daring and outside the lines. Tobia Scarpa defined the core
trait of the entire collection, objects made of precious materials, such as
wood, carefully processed “piece by piece,” and finished by an expert
craftsman. The search for iconic objects merges with the intention to design a
modern room. A style that combines geometrical simplification of shapes with
highly refined, subtly concealed, production quality.
And it is all achieved by recovering, or inventing, the production
methods typical of expert craftsmanship.
Hence the creation
of collection items, such as chairs made of Africa wood in the Artona
collection, or the New Harmony collection.
Authenticity
B&B Italia relies its products only with high quality materials
and controls the quality during every processing phase. The materials and
technologies conceived are an integral part of the study carried out for every
product that is designed to highlight both its own identity and customer
requirements. Promoting the intrinsic quality of every product has always
ensured the excellence of B&B Italia products. Each authentic B&B
Italia and Maxalto product is supplied with a authenticity document (Product
data sheet-Guarantee) stating that the product is original, and is aligned to
B&B Italia quality standards. The “Product data sheet-Guarantee” informs
the customer about materials, maintenance, warranty, manufacturer and designer.
Quality that stands the test of time
The unique industrial production technique of B&B Italia
upholstered furniture, along with the quality of materials used, guarantees
B&B Italia clients a product that is far more durable than the best
standards in the sector. B&B Italia guarantees the frame of its padded
furniture (sofas, armchairs, chairs and beds) for 10 years from the date of
manufacture (as stated on the “Product data sheet - Guarantee”). The production
technology of “polyurethane foam mouldings,” which was introduced into the
sector by the founder of the company in 1966, revolutionized industrial
production of upholstered models, guaranteeing higher and constant quality
standards. Precisely, the process entails ”sinking” a steel frame in the mould,
which is then filled with bayfitrall polyurethane by cold injection.
B&B Italia guarantees the cover, the feet, the materials, accessories and
mechanisms making up the product for 26 months from the date of manufacture (as
stated on the enclosed “Product data sheet - Guarantee”) against any
manufacturing defect including lacquering and frame of not upholstery products.
Woods
To highlight the distinctive characteristics of the wood and its
natural quality, B&B Italia subjects wood to an open pore finish. For
finishes in light oak, black oak, or smoky oak, before applying a clear finish,
the surface is subjected to a “brushing” process that highlights the grain in
the wood. For grey coloured oak, the colour applied is designed not to alter
the original characteristics of the wood itself.
Oak used in B&B Italia’s productions is solely ribbed
american rift white oak. This material typically presents a straight but
irregular grain, sometimes with a coarse texture. .
