Marino Piotti, known professionally as Dean Marino, born in 1982, is an Italian sculptor/designer from Val Trompia. From a young age he has a visceral relationship with the elements of his homeland. He creates sculptures using natural elements such as wood and iron, giving them new life while maintaining a strong connection to his origins. His objective is to create an indispensable connection between man and nature. His mission is the regeneration of matter.
Natural knots and scars are an emanation of the Wabi-sabi philosophy that envelops the sculpture.

TAKARAMONO is a coffee table whose top is carved from the cedar wood of the Vittoriale degli Italiani in Gardone Riviera on Lake Garda.
Handmade, crafted in Wabi-sabi style; every detail is handmade by the artist and every unique metal junction has been carved from the solid and hand-forged with hammer and anvil.
The minimalist design and the Wabi-sabi philosophy permeating it make "Takaramono" a perfect addition to any modern setting.
It is an excellent choice for those seeking a table with a unique design that blends seamlessly into any environment. A great addition for any home, whether modern or more traditional.
Finished with natural oils and wax.
Philosophy:
Wabi-sabi (侘寂) presents a Japanese worldview, or aesthetics, based on accepting the transience and imperfection of things. This view, sometimes described as "beautiful imperfection, impermanence and incompleteness," derives from the Buddhist doctrine of anitya (impermanence).
