Technical Specifications and Equipment
Top and Extension Leaves: made from glass (12 mm thick, excluding the V0084 clear bronze finish which is 10 mm thick), gres stoneware (16 mm thick) and marble (20 mm thick).
The extending versions are always equipped with n.2 extension leaves of 40 cm, with the exception of the cm 200 x 100/110 extending rectangular models which instead are equipped with n.2 extension leaves of 50 cm.
Material Specifications
Marble: elegant and refined stone marble, characterised by open veins that sometimes may present some resin based speckles that create a uniform and smooth surface so that the top comes with no irregularities, granting additional structural resistance. Because it is a natural stone that is sometimes more than a million years old, the surface cannot be defined as 'perfect'; each piece is different from the next, depending on the cutting and polishing process. It may have natural micro imperfections, a characteristic of marble and not due to defects. Marble tops are naturally porous: any protective polyester treatment hides this porosity to the touch, leaving all the natural features of the stone visible.
Further Information...
Gres stoneware top: it is made by the match of a lower glass slab of thickness mm 6 or 10 and of an upper slab in ceramic of thickness mm 6.
gres porcelain is a compact material which is resistant to cold temperatures and to chemical agents. Externally, the main characteristics are chromatic variations of veins and delicate dots: these are diversification details which are realised voluntarily in order to recall the causality and the beauty of natural materials.
Glass Top: tempered glass compliant to UNI regulation. This is glass that is treated during manufacturing with a heat process: high temperatures followed by a sudden brake down of the temperatures, all with the aim of obtaining a glass with strong inside tensions, which becomes resistant to flexion and thermic shocks. A warranty of higher quality also increased analysing each slab of glass with a high precision digital scanner.
