The AX table perfectly expresses the pursuit of essentialness: pure silhouettes and a geometric language are its distinguishing features, making it a simple and light-weight object, yet at the same time characterised by a solid shape. The name derives from the shape of the base, which is formed by two criss-crossed components an X.

Care and Cleaning: Clean wood with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use alcohol or stain removers. Liquid cleaners can be used but they must be rinsed off and the surface must be dried carefully with a cloth. Never use harsh chemicals. Wood is a natural material and thus different batches can present different tones. In time, the color of the wood changes. To slow dow this process, the material should be kept of of direct sunlight.
