Sandro End Table 2

The table that the lathe made. And the room remembers.
There is a craft tradition in India that has always understood the turned column — the patience of the lathe, the rhythm of the form, the particular satisfaction of a shape that could only have been made by rotating a piece of timber against a cutting tool with complete intention. The Sandro End Table carries that tradition into a side table where the entire pedestal column is a series of stacked spherical and cylindrical turned forms in solid wood — each bulge graduating in size from the narrower top to the widest base, the grain of the timber flowing continuously through every sphere and every narrowing as though the entire column was always waiting inside the wood to be revealed. A generous round wood top sits above, and a matt black circular metal disc grounds the column below — the considered material contrast that completes the piece.
Wood carries the warmth and distinctive grain of honest Indian timber through every element of the Sandro End Table — the turned column catching the light differently at every angle, the round top carrying the same reddish warmth from edge to edge. The stacked sphere column connects the Sandro End Table to the broader Sandro family design language — the bobbin turning detail that runs through the mirrors now given its fullest, most three-dimensional expression in a pedestal that is as much sculpture as structure. An end table designed in India, for the home that understands the most considered pieces are always the ones where the craft is visible in every detail — and every detail rewards the closest attention.
