Description
The Cattelan Italia Nido Coffee Table range consists of three round formats sharing the same signature embossed lacquered steel base: Ø100×42h cm (large format, Clear Glass top), Ø55×56h cm (mid-size, metal top), and Ø49×49h cm (compact, metal top). The two smaller formats use a matching embossed metal top — both components in the same finish — while the large Ø100 format pairs a fixed Clear Glass top with the choice of Graphite or Black Embossed base. All three formats are available in Graphite Embossed or Black Embossed base finishes. The Ø100 is the only format with a glass top and ships in 2 parcels (69 kg total); the two smaller formats each ship as a single all-in-one parcel. Made in Italy by Cattelan Italia.
Key Features
- Three Formats — One Signature Base: All three Nido formats share the same embossed lacquered steel base design — the angular, open-frame geometric structure is the defining element of the range. The Ø100 scales the base to a large primary coffee table format with a glass top; the Ø55 and Ø49 are compact accent/side table formats with a matching metal top.
- Ø100×42h — Large Format, Glass Top: The primary coffee table format in the range. A Clear Glass top (fixed) pairs with Graphite or Black Embossed base — the only format in the range with a glass top. Ships in 2 parcels: glass top (110×110×6 cm, 36 kg) + base (112×112×36 cm, 33 kg), 69 kg total.
- Ø55×56h and Ø49×49h — Compact Metal-Top Formats: Both smaller formats use a round embossed lacquered steel top in the same finish as the base — top and base are always matched. The Ø55 is taller than it is wide (56h vs 55Ø) — an accent table profile suited beside sofas or lounge chairs. The Ø49 is near-cubic (49×49h) — the most compact and portable format in the range.
- Two Base Finishes — Graphite and Black Embossed: Both finishes apply to all three formats. Graphite Embossed is a mid-dark warm grey with a textural embossed surface; Black Embossed is a deep matte black with the same embossed pattern. For the Ø55 and Ø49 the chosen finish covers both top and base as a matched set.
- Made in Italy — Cattelan Italia: Embossed lacquered steel throughout, tempered glass top for the Ø100 format.

Ø100×42h — at 100 cm diameter and 42 cm height this is a full primary coffee table format; the 42 cm height sits at the upper end of standard coffee table range (typically 35–45 cm) and is comfortable for use from most contemporary sofa seat heights. The glass top is fixed — its transparency keeps the focus on the sculptural base, which at 112×112×36 cm packs as a near-square flat parcel; the base (33 kg) and glass top (36 kg) are near-equal in weight, indicating a substantial base structure that spans close to the full top plan area. Ø55×56h — taller than wide (56h vs 55Ø); the near-equal diameter and height dimensions give this format an almost cylindrical visual profile — more vertical in character than the Ø100. At 56 cm height it sits above standard sofa armrest height for most seating (typically 50–65 cm), making it comfortable as a beside-sofa surface for drinks or a phone. Ships as a compact single parcel (71×63×86 cm, 18.50 kg). Ø49×49h — a near-perfect cube in its envelope (49 cm diameter = 49 cm height); the most compact and portable format in the range. At 16 kg and a parcel of 59×61×54 cm it is the lightest and smallest format — easy to reposition and suited to tighter spaces beside armchairs or as a grouped accent table cluster.

Glass + Graphite Embossed — the warm grey base reads as a defined structural element beneath the transparent glass; the contrast between the cool clear glass and the warm-grey textural base is the less severe of the two configurations — the graphite tone creates a grounded, architectural look. Glass + Black Embossed — the deep matte black base below the clear glass creates a stronger contrast; the base appears heavier and more visually dominant. The embossed texture is more pronounced in Black than in Graphite under directional light.

Top & Base — Ø55 · Ø49
For the Ø55 and Ø49 formats the chosen embossed finish applies to both the round metal top and the base as a unified matched set — there is no glass top option and no mixed finish configuration available. Graphite Embossed — warm mid-dark grey with a tactile embossed surface texture; a versatile finish that reads as a refined industrial tone. Black Embossed — deep matte black with the same embossed pattern; the more graphic and high-contrast of the two options, particularly visible when the table is viewed against pale flooring or furnishings.
Materials & Construction
Ø100 — Glass Top Format
The Ø100×42h is the only Nido format with a glass top — tempered clear glass (110×110×6 cm parcel, 36 kg) paired with a large embossed steel base (112×112×36 cm parcel, 33 kg). The base and glass top are near-equal in weight (33 vs 36 kg), indicating a structurally substantial base frame that spans close to the full 100 cm top diameter. Ships in 2 parcels, 69 kg total — two-person handling recommended.
Ø55 & Ø49 — Full Metal Formats
Both smaller formats use embossed lacquered steel for both the round top and the base — finish is always matched across both components. The Ø55 ships in a single parcel (71×63×86 cm, 18.50 kg); the Ø49 ships in a single parcel (59×61×54 cm, 16.00 kg). Both are single-person deliverable and repositionable without assistance.
Embossed Lacquered Steel
The embossed finish is a texturally patterned lacquer applied to the steel surface — it creates a fine relief pattern across the metal that adds tactile depth and reduces the flat-mirror quality of a plain lacquer. Available in Graphite and Black across all three formats. The embossed texture is the same pattern in both colours; the difference is purely tonal — warm-grey Graphite vs deep matte Black.
Dimensions
Three round formats — all available in Graphite or Black Embossed. Ø100×42h: Glass top (fixed) + embossed base · 2 parcels · 69 kg. Ø55×56h & Ø49×49h: Metal top + base matched · 1 parcel each.
