The Bonaldo One console table by Alian Gilles is a highly original modern living room or entrance way accessory with a striking top and an unusual base.
Available in two sizes, the One console presents an unexpected, unique and in some ways imperfect piece of architecture that recalls the Dolmens of prehistoric times, which were created by stacking irregular stones in a way that was apparently random and precarious. It is as if the elements that make up the console were not intended to be together but had instead shifted unexpectedly away from their original position to create this contemporary piece.
A barely visible opening between the curved modules that form the base allows an interplay of light that illuminates the different profiles of the console’s supporting columns. The legs are very close to each other, so much so that from different perspectives the distance is imperceptible; this generates visual instability and a surprising dynamic effect. At the same time, the interplay between the legs gives direction to the console, and therefore to the space in which it is placed. These unusual features give the product a personal richness, making it unique and particularly unexpected.
Made in Italy, the One console has a depth of just 40cm so will fit perfectly in narrower spaces. There are several different finish options for the top and base. Firstly, you can choose the table with a top in brushed coal oak, bruished grey oak or Canaletto walnut with either a bronze or lead base. Or you can choose the top and base in brushed coal oak, brushed honey oak or Canaletto walnut.
Finally, you can select the top and base in hand spatulated clay which is a beautiful yet practical material composed of recycled aggregates, it is waterproof and resistant to dirt and stains and available in several colours.
