Walnut wood, oak wood, blockboard, formica
Designed around 1956 for the Apartment O. in Casa del Sole in Cervinia and crafted by Ettore Canali, this rare vintage extendable table reflects Carlo Mollino’s refined approach to domestic architecture and design. Conceived to respond to the flexible needs of alpine living, the piece balances practicality with an expressive structural clarity. Crafted in walnut and oak wood with paniforte elements and a Formica surface, the table exemplifies Mollino’s ability to merge traditional materials with modern solutions. The precise joinery and the carefully engineered extension mechanism highlight the exceptional craftsmanship of Canali’s workshop, resulting in a design that is both functional and elegantly resolved.
