The Chiodo series is a broad collection which comes from the idea of a "chiodofisso" (literally, a fixed nail; figuratively an obsession): all items have the same 'chiodo' (nail) shape but are different in sizes and function.

Chiodo 6 is a coffee table with a storage compartment. The head - or tabletop - lifts up and reveals the internal wood partition. Designed to store bottles, magazines or whatever your imagination offers up, in a tidy and safe manner. Combining a metal exterior with a wooden interior imbues the object with a warm look and gives an unexpected surprise.

It's ideal as trio of coffee tables when combined with Chiodo 4 and Chiodo 5.

Chiodo 6 is made in iron that is welded by hand, available in indoor or outdoor versions.

The indoor version is spray painted, whilst the outdoor version is galvanised and painted with powder coating.

Indoor version. The spray painting is comprised of acrylic enamel with two components of high opacity. It is applied by hand and dried at low temperatures. The paint type is that of bodywork, with unique aesthetic and tactile features.
From an aesthetic point of view, the paint has deep opacity and almost completely absorbs the light accentuating the perfection of the shapes. To the touch, it is extremely smooth and gives an almost textile feel. It almost seems like you are touching a fabric beneath your fingers.
Care instructions: clean with gentle products.

Outdoor version. The galvanising process utilised creates a thin layer of zinc that protects the metal from oxidation. Finally, it is covered with a powder coating.
Powder coating is a covering based on synthetic resins placed in an oven at high temperatures. The polymerised paint creates an adherent and durable layer. The paintwork is scratch-resistant to high mechanical stress (recurrent rubbing). It is resistant to weathering and UV rays.
Care instructions: clean with gentle products for glass.
