Jade Coffee Table by Draga & Aurel

Jade coffee table by Draga & Aurel Dimensions: W 50, D 50, H 38, top Ø 50 cm Materials: Resin and bronze Also available: W 50, D 50, H 28, top Ø 50 cm Formed from a combination of reflective resin and solid brass, the Jade coffee tables look like precious gems. The surface is made by hand in resin of 10 cm high: each one takes over a week to cast. Thanks to a handcrafted surface treatment, special brass veins characterize the structure of the coffee tables. Inspired by the magical mineral color palette of Transparency matters, these coffee tables are featured by ethereal transparency, luxurious sensitivity, and a reflective surface that plays poetically with the light, reflecting your gaze as a functional work of art. Founded in 2007 in the town of Como, Italy, Draga & Aurel is a multidisciplinary design studio that works along the spectrum of furniture, textile and interior design. Draga Obradovic began her career in the fashion industry, first working in London and Milan as a textile designer before eventually settling in Como. Aurel K. Basedow graduated from Milan’s Accademia di Belle Arti with a degree in Fine Arts, having previously trained as a carpenter and woodworker. Thanks to their sympathetic methods, combined with an artist’s approach to material and composition Draga & Aurel are widely recognized for their clever reinvention of bespoke vintage design pieces. Their showing at 2009 Salone del Mobile introduced the duo to the world stage; it followed the partnerships with several companies that have pushed the pair’s domain beyond the reinvention of singular vintage pieces. While interior projects have expanded their sought after aesthetic into the realm of hospitality and lifestyle. In occasion of the 2019 Milan Design Week the design duo presented Transparency Matters, an exhibition of limited edition pieces, entirely fabricated by hand in their Como atelier.
