The peculiarity of the Blossom table resides in its plywood legs, moulded and curved at the top to form a sort of capital or, better said, a forked branch, which provides a solid support also to large table tops (of up to 240x90 cm). The overall design is "keeping in mind (respecting) the teachings of Alvar Aalto precisely and the grace of one's hands" (Finessi, 2003). The table tops are veneered (1 mm thick) in Wenge-stained maple or oak or lined in white laminate with solid wood edges. The feet are adjustable.
