Description
The Cattelan Italia Falco Coffee Table is a tall round glass-top accent and side table — Ø50 × 58h cm — combining a circular tempered glass top with a geometric angled base in Graphite Embossed lacquered steel. The glass top is available in two finishes: Clear Glass (fully transparent) and Fumé Glass (smoke-tinted). The base finish is fixed in Graphite Embossed — a cool dark micro-textured lacquered steel. At 58 cm height, the Falco sits at standard side table elevation — its surface positions level with or just above a sofa arm, suited to use beside a chair or sofa for drinks, a lamp, or a remote. The Ø50 cm diameter provides a practical circular surface at this height without creating a large floor footprint. The angled geometric base is the Falco's primary design element — its splayed form provides structural stability through geometry rather than mass, keeping the base visually open and light beneath the circular glass disc. Made in Italy by Cattelan Italia.
Key Features
- Geometric Angled Base — Graphite Embossed Steel: The Falco's base is its defining design element — a geometric, splayed construction in Graphite Embossed lacquered steel that provides structural stability through its angled form rather than through a wide base plate. The Graphite Embossed surface is a cool dark grey micro-textured finish — precise and refined, with a surface texture that differentiates it from flat-lacquered alternatives and introduces subtle visual complexity at close range. The base finish is fixed — there is no alternative base option.
- Round Glass Top — Two Finish Options: The Ø50 cm circular top is produced in tempered glass in either Clear Glass (fully transparent, no tinting) or Fumé Glass (smoke-tinted, with a grey-brown translucent tone). The choice between Clear and Fumé is the only configuration variable in the Falco — all other elements are fixed. Clear Glass keeps the composition fully transparent and allows the geometric base to remain fully visible from above; Fumé Glass introduces a cool tonal depth to the disc that slightly filters the view to the base below.
- Tall Side Table Profile — 58 cm: At 58 cm height, the Falco is positioned in the upper range of accent/side table heights — its surface sits level with or just above typical sofa arm height, making it most naturally suited to use beside an armchair or sofa end rather than as a central coffee table. Its Ø50 cm diameter at 58 cm height gives it a tall, slender visual proportion — more column-like than table-like — which contributes to its sculptural character as a standalone accent piece.
- Compact Round Footprint — Ø50 cm: The 50 cm diameter keeps the floor footprint minimal — particularly valuable in tight placements beside seating or in rooms where floor space is limited. The circular form eliminates corners, allowing the Falco to be positioned closer to adjacent furniture without the projection issues of a rectangular or square table.
- Made in Italy — Cattelan Italia: Precision-manufactured in Italy with tempered glass top and lacquered steel base construction throughout.
Size & Configuration
58h cm / 22.8"
At Ø50 × 58h cm, the Falco's proportions place it firmly in the tall-accent / side table category — its height-to-diameter ratio (58:50) gives it a notably upright, slender visual character that distinguishes it from lower, broader coffee table formats. The 58 cm height positions the glass surface at approximately sofa arm height in most standard sofas, making it well suited as a surface for a drink or a small lamp beside an armchair or at the end of a sofa. The Ø50 cm diameter provides sufficient surface area for this use without the table's footprint projecting significantly into the seating area. The circular form at this height means the Falco reads as a sculptural object within the room — its geometric base and circular glass top have a strong vertical presence that contributes to the spatial composition independently of its functional role. Multiple Falco pieces can be paired — two beside a sofa, or one on each side of an armchair — where their consistent height and shared base geometry create a composed, symmetrical arrangement.
Finish Options
Two tempered glass options for the Ø50 cm circular top — the only configuration variable in the Falco.
Clear Glass
Top — Transparent
Fumé Glass
Top — Smoke Tinted
Clear Glass — fully transparent tempered glass with no tinting or coating. The circular disc reads as a clean, optically neutral plane — the geometric Graphite Embossed base below is fully visible through the top from above, and the table's structural logic is completely legible from any viewing angle. Clear Glass is the more spatially open of the two options, allowing the Falco to feel lighter and less visually present in the room — suited to spaces where the priority is to minimise the table's visual mass while maintaining its structural presence. Fumé Glass — smoke-tinted tempered glass with a warm grey-brown translucent tone. The tint introduces a degree of opacity to the circular disc — the base remains visible through the Fumé glass but is slightly filtered, softening the view and adding a cooler, more considered tonal depth to the top surface. The Fumé tone creates a closer material relationship with the Graphite Embossed base — both finishes share a cool dark grey register, and the Fumé glass introduces a complementary tonal density to the disc that creates a more unified, monochromatic composition than Clear Glass with the same base.
Single fixed base option — Graphite Embossed lacquered steel — consistent with both glass top options.
Graphite Embossed
Base — Fixed
Graphite Embossed — a cool dark grey micro-textured lacquered steel. The embossed surface treatment introduces a subtle all-over texture to the base's angled steel sections — at close range the texture catches light differently across the base's angled faces, creating a visual complexity that distinguishes it from a flat-lacquered graphite surface. The dark cool tone of the Graphite Embossed finish creates a strong tonal contrast with Clear Glass (dark geometric base visible through transparent disc) and a cohesive monochromatic composition with Fumé Glass (dark tinted disc over dark embossed base). As the sole base option, Graphite Embossed defines the Falco's tonal register — it is the one element that does not vary between configurations, and its cool dark character anchors both glass top choices.
Materials & Construction
Tempered Glass Top
The circular top is produced in tempered glass — heat-treated to increase impact resistance and safety. At Ø50 cm the disc is a precise, clean circular form with a chamfered perimeter edge that catches light at the table's circumference. The choice between Clear and Fumé determines the top's tonal character and its visual relationship with the Graphite Embossed base below — Clear Glass maximises transparency and base visibility; Fumé Glass introduces tonal depth and a more unified dark composition with the base.
Tall Accent Proportions
The Falco's Ø50 × 58h cm proportions place it in a specific furniture category — the tall round accent table — that occupies a different spatial and functional role from conventional coffee tables. Its 58 cm height is closer to a side table or console table elevation than a coffee table, and its circular Ø50 cm plan is compact enough to allow placement in tight positions beside seating without significant spatial intrusion. The combination of circular glass disc and geometric splayed base creates a sculptural vertical object that reads as a considered design piece independently of its function as a surface.
