Cattelan Italia CrystalArt Glass for Tabletops and Furniture

The furniture industry has moved beyond simple imitation of natural stone and now encourages designers to create new stones by hand.

Many furniture and interior-design manufacturers copy natural stone and use decorative patterns inspired by famous marble for ceramic and artificial-stone surfaces.

Some companies have recently focused only on the appearance of stone and transferred those visual qualities to their own materials.

Crystalart by Cattelan Italia provides an example of this approach. Cattelan Italia, a high-quality furniture manufacturer, offers artistic decorative printing for extra-clear glass with a bevelled edge. The designs show cloud-like structures or strong veining associated with onyx, marble and sandstone.

Cattelan Italia offers two glass types, simply named CY01 and CY02. Cattelan Italia describes the finishes as follows: “Warm and amber tones evoke the typical colours of the earth, the vast and relaxing expanse of the mountains.”

CrystalArt is a practical solution for a coloured tabletop with the lightness of glass. Saturated tones give the glass tabletop colour and visual depth.

The Focus Crystalart sideboard model highlights the decorative printed glass treatment developed for glass tabletops. The refined finish adds a marble tone to the brightness of crystal.
