GUBI’s Carmel Bistro Tables from OEO Studio blend the Californian-inspired vibrancy of their coffee tables with the timeless elegance of European café culture. Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, the durable and resilient tables are perfect for both casual gatherings and formal occasions. Like the Carmel Coffee Tables, each features a 75x75 cm tabletop in glazed Italian stoneware, supported by a tree-like assembly of four semi matt black stainless steel legs.
The Carmel Bistro tabletops are finished with a smooth, high-gloss glaze, hand-sprayed onto the surface while the ceramic is drying and before it is fired, giving a rich, textured depth that enhances its expressive materiality. The glossy surface of the ceramic catches the light, showcasing the vivid luster of the two colorways: a warm and earthy Rock Red and a subtle, versatile Clam White, further enriched by the shimmer of minerals applied to the surface and brought to life in the furnace.
