Description
Its structure originates from a brilliant intuition: reinterpreting the cross-shaped joints used in gas lighting systems as both load-bearing and decorative elements. This technical solution, usually hidden, becomes a distinctive feature thanks to the transparent tempered glass top, specifically chosen to reveal the mechanical elegance of the construction. Whether square, rectangular or round, the steel base—finished in matte black or goose-beak orange—adapts its configuration accordingly, preserving visual balance and architectural coherence. The cast aluminum joints, painted to match, add a final touch of engineering precision. Edison is not merely a table, but a statement of design intelligence and stylistic awareness, the very piece Magistretti chose for the dining room of his Milanese home and that Cassina now reintroduces as a timeless example of thoughtful, cultured design.
