ILVOLO Collection

Riccardo Blumer, 2000

ILVOLO table, designed by Riccardo Blumer, is an example of the concept of lightness. Available in fixed or extendable versions, it has a solid wood frame and veneer in various types of wood. The distinctive element of the collection is the leg, whose internal support is made out of injected polyurethane - recalling the technology used in the Laleggera seat collection - giving lightness and strength to the entire structure.
Thanks to a wide range of finishes, from transparent varnish that highlights the different types of wood, to open-pore varnish in multiple colours, Ilvolo tables are suitable for both domestic and professional spaces.

About
ILVOLO

Ilvolo stems from Riccardo Blumer’s research into structural lightness, understood not only as a visual quality but as the result of a precise balance of form, technology and material.
The project combines the warmth of solid wood with an innovative construction solution that reduces weight without compromising stability and durability.
