The Riva 1920 Tornado table is striking for the distinctive design of its central leg, from which it takes its iconic name. A dynamic and functional piece, it blends naturally into a variety of settings, from private homes to the hospitality sector, bringing with it a bold character and an authentic sense of materiality.
Crafted with a solid cedar top made from glued-together slats, Tornado reveals the full richness of the material. The base, also in cedar and carved from a single block, consists of overlapping geometric volumes inspired by the shape of a tornado: a play of contrasts that defines a sculptural support with a strong material and formal impact. A geometry that seems to move whilst remaining still, striking a balance between dynamism and rootedness.
The Tornado table by Riva 1920 defines, shapes and completes the space like a sculptural jewel. Its round shape invites people to gather, to share moments and conversations, transforming the act of sitting round the table into a convivial ritual. Even in hospitality settings — bars, restaurants and lounges with a contemporary flair — Tornado exudes a natural elegance, born of its materials, proportions and quiet authority.
