Porada’s Infinity collection began as a round dining table with a glass top, and the design has since extended into console and coffee table forms, including this piece. We selected it for the base: a single solid-wood support rather than a conventional frame, carrying the full weight of the top on its own. That construction keeps the table easy to reposition around a living room and simple to place beside a sofa or armchair.

The base is made in solid ashwood or walnut, a hardwood suited to carrying a ceramic or solid-wood top without additional bracing underneath. It is a construction built for daily use, where a coffee table takes more knocks and more weight than most other pieces in a living room.
