Starting from today, Russian ballet can enter your place in a new and unexpected way thanks to the Giselle Lounge Table, created by Russian interior and product designer Anna Neklesa. The table recalls, in fact, a ballerina during a performance.
With the top of the table made of steel or powder-coated aluminum, which resembles a ballerina’s tutu, while the legs, made of elegant oak wood, portrait the ballerina’s legs while dancing.
The choice of the reference has not been made by chance, as ballet is one of the most rooted traditions of Russia, and Anna wanted to use it to reveal a new side of her country : ”Nothing expresses the Russian spirit like this form of art. For several centuries, fragile and pretty ballerinas with a strong and passionate character excited the minds of the intelligent all over the world. I wanted to express the beauty of the Russian soul in this table, to combine the fragility and the strength”.
The result is amazing as the table, with its particular shape, is able to adapt itself to many different types of interiors and, apart from its unconventional beauty; it is also able to offer functionality with storage space for newspapers, magazines and other small items in the storage tubes beneath the top.
