Description

The Olbia table by Ico Parisi, a masterpiece of design and craftsmanship, is a true testament to the elegance and innovation of mid-century Italian furniture. Its graceful circular form, combined with the use of teak wood, brings an aura of timeless sophistication to any space it graces.

At its core, the Olbia table is a harmonious fusion of form and function. The round top, meticulously crafted from a single curved plywood structure in rich teak wood, showcases the inherent beauty of natural materials. This choice of wood not only lends warmth and character to the table but also reflects the Italian affinity for fine craftsmanship. The table's design extends its allure to the legs, a remarkable feature that sets it apart. Each leg is a visual symphony, formed by the ingenious combination of two inverted L-shaped elements. These legs, firmly affixed beneath the top, create an illusion of floating elegance. As they descend, they are thoughtfully separated by wooden separators, forming a dynamic contrast in the overall design. This detail, while functional, also adds an element of visual intrigue.

But the magic of the Olbia table doesn't stop there. Its structural stability is enhanced by the curved and coupled heads of the crossbars, cleverly joined in a square shape. This arrangement not only reinforces the table's integrity but also adds an element of geometric sophistication to its design.
The support system, comprising these beautifully composed elements, gently rests on the ground with aluminum box feet, adding a modern touch that complements the table's mid-century roots. The juxtaposition of warm wood and cool metal is a testament to the eclectic sensibilities of Ico Parisi, who was renowned for his ability to blend traditional craftsmanship with modern aesthetics.

One of the most captivating features of the Olbia table is its versatility. It can effortlessly transform from a cozy, intimate dining setting to an expansive 210 cm in length, making it an ideal choice for gatherings of any size. This adaptability reflects the thoughtful consideration that Parisi put into the needs of those who would interact with his creation.

As a piece of design history, the Olbia table holds a special place in the hearts of collectors and connoisseurs. Its provenance, verified by the original label, adds to its allure. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of mid-century Italian design, capturing the essence of an era that celebrated both form and function.
Bibliography:
The Olbia table, as featured in the MIM Catalogue and documented in the scholarly work by R. Gianmarini, stands as a tangible reminder of the industrialization of Italian furniture during the economic boom. It reflects a period of creative fervor and innovation, where designers like Ico Parisi left an indelible mark on the world of furniture design.

Cancellations and Returns

Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.

We've extended our usual return period for the holidays. Any purchases made in December 2023 on gifting items can be returned up until 31 January 2024.

To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.

If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item’s Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.

Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.

Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.

Can I cancel an order?

If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason that they do not want to purchase the Goods before the Goods have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.

The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the customer’s specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.

If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the costs of delivery are non-refundable.

To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.

Can I return an item?

Consumers based in the UK and European Union can request to return the Goods on Vinterior up to 14 days after the Goods have been received. Once accepted, the buyer is in charge of the shipment and should organise it as soon as possible (except in the case of a return of faulty Goods).

To initiate a return, the Customer must click on Create a return on the order page on the Site. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.

As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer’s specific requirements.

Additionally, the Customer may not return an item for "inaccurate listing” reason when its dimensions or other characteristics do not fit its requirements. We strongly recommend that buyer measures all access areas prior to making a purchase.

If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.

In case of a return, the costs of delivery (i.e., outbound delivery costs when Goods are sent from the Vendor to a Customer) are non-refundable.

The Customer is responsible for organising the return of Goods and for paying delivery costs. Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt and refund the Customer. If an item is returned to the seller damaged, or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund and the seller may have to send it back to you (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.

Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged in transportation or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.

In case of damage in transit for all items, Vinterior must be informed. Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf the Vendor with delivery company Proovia. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.

Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.

Vendors may refuse a return of an item if it has been altered by the Customer in any way.

Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
