The watchword of the Amalong table is versatility, obtained in the name of the best Italian artisan tradition. With Amalong, Giulio Iacchetti signs the second episode of collaboration with Bross, radically changing the addenda: if Ademar indeed suggests a line of important tables, almost statuesque in their elliptical or round shape, Amalong instead wants to be an eclectic project, attentive to the different needs of use.

This collection was born with the aim of imagining extendable tables with essential profiles, which are able to solve with elegance but above all with a 'good dose' of
trend is the increasingly popular theme of size variation. And it is from this opportunity for transformation that the name 'Amalong', of Lombard origin, derives.
chosen specifically for the assonances it creates: “long”, in fact, since length is its distinctive feature; and "loves" because the leg of the table leaves a curious imprint in the shape of a heart.

In fact, the wooden structure of the product draws a minimal frame that hides, within its section, the two extensions: in this case, the possibility of changing its configuration is absolutely not perceptible and Amalong demonstrates an impeccable, linear and contemporary design. . Its aesthetic uniformity - emphasized by the 45 ° cut of all the horizontal and vertical elements that trace a perfect match - remains even when the table is opened, with the result of practically doubled capacity.

The extensions are therefore removable from the two short sides: the wooden structure that contains them opens like a book, to be subsequently positioned coplanar with the long sides and become their natural continuation. Thanks to the two deep bevels made in the solid wood, the extensions can finally be fixed to the structure: the necessary stability of the support is guaranteed, without making any material or spatial interruption with respect to the surface.

The institutionality of the Ademar collection, with its finish in precious wood and marble essences, gives way in Amalong to a product with more lively and young tones, capable of interpreting contemporary living and its request for ever more dynamic solutions .

And if Giulio Iacchetti strongly changes the image and functionality of the table product, giving it a new interpretation, Bross instead confirms its attention and research in woodworking, with solutions aimed at emphasizing the precious tactility of the material not without sophisticated technological devices. .
