Molteni - Tobia Scarpa, Afra Scarpa - Table - Mou - Walnut

Wood Architecture: Extendable Table 'Mou' – Design Afra and Tobia Scarpa for Molteni We present at auction the Mou table, a masterpiece of aesthetic engineering designed by the legendary duo Afra and Tobia Scarpa for Molteni. This exemplar stands out for its refined walnut wood cabinetry with which it was conceived and realized. Design and Functional Innovation The Mou table is a perfect synthesis between exceptional cabinetry and mechanical innovation: Geometry of the Fitting: The structure is characterized by the iconic integration of the legs into the profile of the top. This construction detail, unmistakable signature of the Scarpa duo, creates a formal continuity that transforms a structural element into the main decorative motif. Extension System: The top opens with a fluid and precise movement to reveal a central extension divided into two parts made of the same noble essence as the top. Rigor and Durability: Designed with the philosophy of "build well", Mou combines the wisdom of artisanal tradition with Molteni's technological experimentation. Auction Lot Conditions: Original Charm and Integrity The lot presents itself in excellent used condition, preserving its structural solidity intact: Surfaces: The walnut wood has been treated with professional products that have revived its natural grain. The top shows only very light signs of use, consistent with the piece’s age and history, testifying to its originality without compromising its elegance. Durability: The structure is perfectly robust and stable; the wood maintains a warm, even patina. Mechanics: The sliding system and opening mechanisms have been checked: movement is fluid, precise, and fully functioning.
