Let’s discover one of the newest products by DAM: the Celeste table designed by Christophe de Sousa. This piece is composed of a wicker basket that rests on a marble cylinder finished off with a half-sphere. The coffee table represents a strong character that carries the basket on her back with the effort of her work. Thus, in an apparent balance challenge, the two simple geometric shapes are joined into a distinctive design that pays tribute to the farmworkers in the north of Portugal, the wicker basket is born by the hands of a local basket maker who weaves these more or less rigid vegetable fibres. Its tracery gives lightness and subtlety to Celeste, revealing the craftsman’s mastery and the Designer’s enjoyment in giving it functionality and beauty. The Portuguese marble from Estremoz connects us to the land and its generosity in a geological poem.
