Ottagono Medici

The design of this scagliola tabletop was inspired by the decorative motifs on a table displayed in the Tribuna of the Uffizi Palace. Scagliola is a composite substance made from selenite, glue and natural pigments and used to imitate inlays in marble and semi-precious stones. The original table was made in the 17th century in the Grand Ducal workshops and is reinterpreted here with some additional details and colours.
