Description
The Cattelan Italia Axo Coffee Table is a refined expression of minimalist Italian design — a slender chrome stem rising from a lacquered steel disc base, supporting a circular clear glass top with quiet architectural precision. The composition is spare and intentional: no superfluous material, no decorative excess — only the relationship between the polished vertical stem, the flat weighted base, and the floating glass circle above. Available in two diameters (Ø40 cm and Ø55 cm) and three heights (50, 55, and 60 cm), the Axo is conceived both as a standalone side or end table and as a component in multi-height cluster arrangements. The base is finished in Matt Black or Matt White lacquer; the stem in Polished Chrome; the top in clear glass. Made in Italy by Cattelan Italia.
Key Features
- Chrome Stem & Lacquered Base — Precise Material Contrast: A slender Polished Chrome column rises from a flat circular disc base in Matt Black or Matt White lacquered steel. The contrast between the reflective vertical stem and the flat-finish base is the table's primary material dialogue — precise, deliberate, and quietly expressive.
- Two Diameters — Ø40 cm and Ø55 cm: The Ø40 is the more compact, focused configuration — a true side or end table scaled for placement beside a single seat. The Ø55 is wider, with more generous top surface, suited to placement alongside a sofa or at the centre of a small lounge grouping.
- Three Heights — 50, 55, and 60 cm: All six configurations (two diameters × three heights) are designed for multi-height cluster arrangements — grouping two or three Axo tables at staggered heights creates a composed, rhythmic occasional table zone.
- Clear Glass Top — Floating Transparency: The circular clear tempered glass top reads as a floating disc, ensuring the chrome stem and base remain fully visible. The transparency keeps the table visually lightweight regardless of the surrounding interior.
- Matt Black or Matt White Base: Matt Black is the sharper, higher-contrast option; Matt White is the cleaner, more diffused choice suited to lighter palettes and Scandinavian or minimalist interiors.
- Made in Italy — Cattelan Italia: Manufactured entirely in Italy with precision and artisanal care.
Sizes & Heights
50h / 55h / 60h cm | 19.7" / 21.7" / 23.6"
50h / 55h / 60h cm | 19.7" / 21.7" / 23.6"
The Ø40 is the more compact side-table configuration — scaled for a single armchair, a reading corner, or a tight lounge space where a slender footprint is required. The Ø55 provides more generous top surface and reads as a more substantial occasional table, suited to placement alongside a sofa or as part of a grouped arrangement. Within each diameter, the three height variants (50 / 55 / 60 cm) are calibrated for staggered multi-table groupings: placing two or three Axo tables of the same diameter but different heights together creates a composed cluster arrangement — a hallmark of Cattelan Italia's occasional table presentation.
Top Finish
Clear glass top — available across all six configurations and both base finishes.
Clear Glass Top Finish
The circular clear tempered glass top gives the Axo its characteristic sense of lightness — the top reads as a floating disc, ensuring the chrome stem and lacquered base remain the visible structural elements. The transparency of the glass is essential to the table's minimal character.
Stem Finish
Polished Chrome — fixed stem finish across all configurations.
Polished Chrome Stem Finish
The Polished Chrome stem is the Axo's structural centrepiece — a slender, mirror-reflective column that catches light and reads with graphic precision against both the glass top above and the matt lacquered base below. The chrome is consistent across all configurations and both base colour options.
Base Finish
Two lacquer finishes for the circular disc base. Available across all six configurations.
Matt Black Base Finish
Matt White Base Finish
Matt Black creates the strongest contrast against the chrome stem — the base reads as a grounded, weighted anchor and suits darker, more graphic interior palettes. Matt White is the lighter, more diffused option — the base recedes visually and the chrome stem becomes the dominant element, making it the preferred choice for pale, Scandinavian, or minimalist interiors.
Materials & Construction
Clear Tempered Glass Top
The circular top is produced in clear tempered glass — consistent thickness, polished edges, and full optical transparency. Tempered glass provides impact resistance and thermal stability suitable for everyday residential use. The transparency of the top is fundamental to the Axo's visual identity, ensuring the structural elements beneath remain fully visible.
Multi-Height Grouping
All six Axo configurations — Ø40 and Ø55, at 50, 55, and 60 cm heights — are designed for grouped, multi-height cluster arrangements. Pairing two or three tables of the same diameter at staggered heights creates a composed occasional table zone with vertical dynamism. Mixing Ø40 and Ø55 tables within the same cluster adds a further layer of scale variation.
Dimensions
Six configurations — Ø40 and Ø55 diameters, each at 50, 55, and 60 cm heights. All dimensions are consistent across both base finishes.
