Carrier Neolith Ceramic Table by Jesse Visser

About the Item

Carrier Neolith ceramic table by Jesse Visser Dimensions: 240 x 100 x 75 cm Materials: Steel, tabletop Neolith ceramic. The Carrier is a table in which the carrying element has been highlighted. This has been achieved with a completely self-supporting construction that encloses the tabletop. A clear design in which the ceramic tabletop rests solely on the Mahoni wooden construction. The wooden beams from the first prototype originate from one enormous trunk that measures 250 cm cross-section. These beams are self supported and are joined together using an innovative wood joint that doesn’t need bolts or screws. On each beam a shape is milled out causing the beams to interlock seamlessly. For the tabletop a high quality ceramic slab from Neolith is used. It has a fine silk surface finish. This is a material with a high durability and a luxurious feel. It’s scratch resistant, heat resistant and easy to maintain.
