Art meets functionality with the D.859.1 table by Gio Ponti, meticulously reproduced using original design blueprints courtesy of the Gio Ponti Archives. Now an icon within the Molteni&C Heritage Collection, this table was originally designed as a meeting table for up to ten. It captivates with its impressive 3.60-meter span and refined simplicity.
The slender, trapezoidal legs create a single-span bridge, supporting a tapered top that hints at aerodynamics. Originally crafted from solid ash with bronze ferrules, the table is now also available in Black Stained Ash with bronze.
The D.859.1 isn’t confined to its original monumental form; it is also available in two smaller versions that faithfully echo the harmony and proportions of Ponti’s original design. This table doesn’t just furnish a space—it tells a story of innovation, elegance, and timeless design, seamlessly merging modernity with classic craftsmanship to make a statement in any setting.
Size and finish options available. Contact Molteni&C Melbourne or Sydney showrooms for options and specifications.
Giovanni “Gio” Ponti, (Milan, November 18, 1891 – Milan, September 16, 1979), is one of the Italian masters of architecture. He was also a designer and essayist and one of the most important of the twentieth century. Other than the great architectural works which carry his unmistakable signature, he created a vast amount of work in the furniture sector. This is demonstrated in his three Milanese houses which were fully furnished in the “Ponti” style. The houses in via Randaccio, 1925, Casa Laporte in via Brin, 1926 and the last in via Dezza, in 1957 is an “expression” of his home design ideas.
