The “Black Bi” art pool table is part of the “Étirement” collection by designer Frédéric D.Driani. This collection is characterized by an organic, futuristic design, where each piece becomes a sculpture in itself. The meticulous, refined workmanship of each component lends the whole an unequalled singularity. The stretching effect of the base, a veritable artistic feat, transcends the material to create a captivating illusion of elasticity. The artist’s vision transforms raw materials into fluid, dynamic forms, evoking the malleability of a substance in perpetual transformation. Limited edition of 8 Creation : @d.driani_creation TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The “Black Bi” is made from French ash wood, selected locally to guarantee impeccable quality and a minimal ecological footprint. Each piece of wood is meticulously gouged, a technique that gives the billiard table a raw, natural look. The wood is then blackened using a unique in-house process, creating a visual effect of burnt wood without it actually being burnt.
