The Aster coffee table, designed by Vincent Van Duysen, is the ultimate expression of compositional rationality and craftsmanship. A unique object made entirely by hand, a contemporary work of art that combines aesthetics and functionality. Each table has a slightly different connotation, testifying to its handcrafted nature.
Its base features a brass casting made with an earth mould that gives it the sophisticated hammered effect. The ring is mounted to the legs by welding. A vibratory finishing technique completes the aesthetics. With the help of stones, the structure is gently smoothed, giving it a wavy effect.
The top consists of an annealed glass with a thickness of 1.9 cm and distinguished at the bottom by a slight ripple that gives it personality. Here, too, the manufacturing technique is meticulous: the sheet is placed in a mold with a rusticated bottom and fused at a temperature of 180 degrees, giving the glass its typical finish.
