shanghai tip side table
by Patricia Urquiola from Moroso
shanghai tip side table
Design Patricia Urquiola, 2006
Tubular steel base, steel top
Made in Italy by Moroso
Sophisticated yet comforting, understated luxury with a vaguely Oriental feel. Simple and minimal the chrome-steel, varnished or powder-coated tube legs are reminiscent of the colored wooden sticks used for playing Mikado (or pick-up-sticks, known as Shanghai in Italian). The splashes of color provided by the lacquered tables in violet, emerald green and lacquer red contrast perfectly with the clean lines & neutral shades achieved by the seating units.
Born in Oviedo, Patricia Urquiola attended the Madrid Polytechnic and the Milan Polytechnic Universities where she graduated in 1989 with Achille Castiglioni as her supervisor of whom she was assistant at the Milan Polytechnic from 1990 to 1992. She has worked with many great talents and a plethora of companies worldwide. This brilliant Spanish architect is a phenomenon not to be lost sight of.
The Shanghai Tip tables are offered in different shapes, sizes, colors and materials. The side tables are offered with either a round or square top with a steel top and tubular steel base in your choice of finish options.
round side table: 19" h | top: 13.75" dia.
square side table: 17" h | top: 12.5" L | 12.5" w
