{"product_id":"aalto-rect-white-onyx-stacked-blade-wave-pedestal-dining-table","title":"Laine Rect — White Onyx \u0026 Stacked Blade Wave Pedestal Dining Table","description":"\u003cp class=\"body-text\"\u003eThe Aalto Rect is the most formally ambitious piece in the Maison Ilmarinen collection — the one that most completely refuses the boundary between furniture and sculpture. Its plateau is a wide rectangle of White Onyx, translucent, pale green-white, its veining moving in slow arcs across a surface that in strong light becomes luminous rather than reflective. The stone is thin — chosen for its translucency as much as its colour — and its edges are rounded to a full bullnose that gives the large plateau a quality of softness unexpected in a table of this scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"body-text\"\u003eBeneath the plateau, the base is built from a technique closer to laminated timber construction than conventional furniture making. Individual blades of solid dark walnut — each one precisely cut, bevelled at its outer edge, and graduated in width — are stacked and fixed along a central axis, then the assembled stack is shaped by hand into a compound wave form: rising from the floor in two symmetrical volumes that lean outward, curve upward and inward, and converge at a crown that presses against the plateau underside from two symmetrical positions. The form that emerges evokes simultaneously a breaking wave seen in cross-section, the ribs of a ship's hull, the spread wings of a large bird, and the interior of a shell. None of these references is deliberate — they are the natural consequence of following the geometry of the form to its conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-title\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-title\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Construction\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ePlateau:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eWhite Onyx — pale green-white, translucent, honed or polished finish\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBase blades:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSolid dark walnut — individually cut, bevelled outer edge, graduated width\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBase construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eLaminated blade stack — CNC-cut profile, hand-shaped wave form\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBase finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eHardwax oil — matte, open grain, deep walnut tone\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ePlateau edge:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eFull bullnose — generous radius, softens the large format\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eConnection:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eConcealed threaded rod at each wave crown — zero visible hardware\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem; color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003eDimensions : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section-label\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eDesign Style : \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem; color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"style-tag\"\u003eCollectible Design\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"style-tag\"\u003eParametric \/Craft\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"style-tag\"\u003eGallery Object\/\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"style-tag\"\u003eBiomorphic Architecture\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section-label\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem; color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"style-tag\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"body-text\"\u003eThe Aalto Rect operates in the territory where furniture meets parametric architecture — the design language pioneered by architects who use computational tools to generate organic forms from structural logic.
