ABOUT 973

‘Rolf Benz 973 is an extremely mobile and practical side table which is timeless in the way it blends in with different ambiences. The original home accessory is made of high-end materials such as butt leather, sheet steel and solid wood, and as such also meets high quality and durability standards. The table top is made of powder-coated sheet steel and comes in nine colours, the handle is dark brown, robust, resilient butt leather, while the connecting section is polished cast chrome, and the tripod made of walnut or oak. This is a fresh, highly functional design, whose high-end aesthetics is primarily the result of the materials used.’
