Description
The Cattelan Italia Biplane Square Coffee Table — Fast Delivery is a pre-configured, stocked version of the Biplane Square in the 122 × 122 × 40h cm format, combining a Fumé Glass top, Glossy Portoro ceramic base panels, and a Titanium Embossed lacquered steel frame with conical feet. Designed by Paolo Cattelan, the Biplane is defined by its dual overlapping glass surfaces and the geometric tension between the broad horizontal glass planes, the marble-effect ceramic body panels below, and the precisely proportioned conical metal feet. The Glossy Portoro ceramic — deep black ground with bold gold veining in a high-gloss surface — and the Fumé glass top create a dark, richly layered composition that reads with maximum presence as a room centrepiece. This fast-delivery configuration ships in 4–6 weeks versus the standard 8–10 week production window for the fully customisable Biplane Square. Made in Italy by Cattelan Italia.
Key Features
- Pre-Configured Fast Delivery: Fixed combination of Fumé Glass top, Glossy Portoro ceramic base panels, and Titanium Embossed frame — stocked for 4–6 week dispatch, approximately half the standard 8–10 week production lead time.
- Dual Glass Surfaces: The Biplane's signature double-layer glass construction places two overlapping horizontal planes above the ceramic body — the lower glass plane visible beneath the top glass creates depth, transparency, and a layered floating quality that is central to the Biplane design language.
- Glossy Portoro Ceramic Body Panels: Deep black ground with bold gold veining in a high-gloss ceramic surface — one of the most dramatically expressive finishes in the Cattelan Italia ceramic palette. The gloss surface amplifies reflectivity and creates a material dialogue with the Fumé glass above.
- Fumé Glass Top: Smoke-tinted tempered glass that filters and softens the view through to the ceramic and lower glass plane below, creating a layered tonal depth without obscuring the composition's architectural geometry.
- Titanium Embossed Steel Frame: Micro-textured titanium-tone lacquered steel — precise, cool, and industrially refined. The embossed texture catches light across the frame's profile, differentiating it from flat-lacquered alternatives and introducing subtle material complexity at close range.
- Sculptural Conical Feet: Tapering conical feet in Titanium Embossed finish provide the structural base with visual slenderness — the same formal vocabulary as the Billy collection's base, extending visual coherence across Cattelan Italia's conical-base design family.
- Designed by Paolo Cattelan — Made in Italy: Manufactured by Cattelan Italia with precision engineering and premium materials throughout.
Size & Configuration
40h cm / 15.7"
At 122 × 122 × 40h cm, the Biplane Square sits as a primary lounge coffee table — its footprint is well proportioned for large sectional sofas and open-plan living arrangements, and its 40 cm height positions the dual glass surface at a comfortable functional height for everyday use. The square format creates equal prominence from all four sides of the seating group — there is no longer side or shorter end, which makes it particularly well suited to central placement within a symmetric seating arrangement.

Materials & Construction
Fumé Glass Top
The top surface is smoke-tinted tempered glass — hardened for impact resistance and safety. The Fumé tint softens transparency without obscuring the layered ceramic and lower glass composition below, creating depth and controlled visual access through the table's horizontal planes. At 122 cm square, the Fumé glass top provides a generous, practical surface while contributing significantly to the table's overall tonal character.
Glossy Portoro Ceramic Panels
The base body panels are produced in sintered ceramic — dense, non-porous, with excellent resistance to scratches, heat, and staining. Glossy Portoro delivers a deep black ground with bold gold veining in a high-gloss surface treatment that amplifies the ceramic's reflective quality and creates a strong material presence within the frame. The gloss surface introduces a visual conversation with the Fumé glass surfaces above, both filtering and reflecting ambient light differently.
