The Dynamism of a base made of cylinders in solid wood makes Pilar a luxury dining table. The design of the base creates a unique solid wood dining table made with the best quality of woods, like Ash Wood, coming from Porada’s own certified forests.
The glass top is fixed to the base with brushed anthracite metal plates; the joints between the wood cylinders are in black chromed metal. Pilar is available with one base for a round dining table, or with two pedestals for a rectangular or oval top version, available in many different sizes.
The central position of the bases gives a higher level of comfort and leaves more flexibility in placing the chairs around the table. Transparency and solid wood design define this clean product that shows the skills of Porada’s best artisans and production process.
