This round travertine dining table, designed by Angelo Mangiarotti for Up&Up in the 1970s, is one of the most significant pieces to have passed through the VV Interior Home collection. The circular top — Ø 120 cm, 4 cm thick — rests on a cylindrical pedestal base composed of travertine cylinders that connect through gravity alone, without fasteners or adhesives — the structural principle that defines Mangiarotti's approach to stone furniture across his entire body of work.
Mangiarotti understood stone not as a material to be cut and assembled but as a material that carries itself. The gravity-based joinery of the pedestal — cylinders that hold their position through weight and precision alone — is simultaneously the most structurally honest and the most formally resolved solution in the history of Italian stone furniture. In travertine, with its warm cream and beige tones and characteristic horizontal veining, the result is a dining table of exceptional material presence and architectural clarity.
The table was produced by Up&Up — the Luccan manufacturer that worked with Mangiarotti, among others, to realise some of the most important Italian stone furniture of the postwar period. A historically and formally significant piece, now in a private collection.
