&Tradition’s Lato LN8, designed by Luca Nichetto in 2018, is a sculptural table that combines a round steel top with a luxurious marble base. According to Nichetto, the idea for Lato table came from the shape of a lollipop turned upside down – the slim steel leg and oval-shaped marble base do in fact resemble a lollipop.

Le guéridon Lato a été imaginé comme une sculpture par l'Italien Luca Nichetto. Elle se compose d’un socle lourd en marbre d’où s’élève une mince tige d’acier qui soutient un plateau en bois chaleureux. La finesse du plateau est contrebalancée par les lignes massives du socle.

Striking, graphic and poetic, its purity of form is proof that simple is sophisticated. With Lato, Nichetto wanted to keep the simplicity and streamline into a timeless side table in a style that could easily be the centre of attention.

Since its release the Lato table’s base has been available in either Emperador Marble or Crema Diva Marble, but the latest addition now sees its sculptural form offered in a green tinted, Verde Alpe Marble with a Deep green powder coated steel tabletop.
