What Is a Sculptural Epoxy Art Table?
Delen
A sculptural epoxy art table is a fully custom, hand-cast furniture piece where the table itself functions as a standalone art object rather than a conventional dining or accent table. Unlike a standard tabletop set on separate legs, a sculptural epoxy piece is cast as one continuous form — the base, the legs, and sometimes embedded materials like gemstones or crystal are all part of a single, unrepeatable sculpture you can also use as furniture.
At Leonardo Gravina, this category includes pieces like the Eclipse Collection, Harmony, and Levitate — each built entirely to the client’s specifications, with no two pieces ever alike.
What makes a table “sculptural” instead of just custom?
A custom table is built to your dimensions and color preferences. A sculptural table goes further: the form itself is designed as art first, function second. It often weighs significantly more than a standard table (some pieces reach around 300 kg), because it’s fully cast rather than built around a lightweight core. The result is a piece that would hold its own in a gallery, but happens to also seat your dinner guests.
What materials go into a sculptural epoxy table?
Each piece is different, but the category typically draws on:
• Fully-cast epoxy resin, poured and layered by hand for depth and movement
• Real embedded gemstones or geodes, such as amethyst
• Metallic pigments, gold leaf, or pearlescent finishes for light-reactive surfaces
Nothing is mass-produced or molded from a template — every sculptural piece starts as a blank concept shaped around the client’s space, story, or collection.
How long does a sculptural piece take to make?
Sculptural pieces generally take longer than standard custom tables because of the layered casting and curing process, plus any embedded material work (like setting a geode). Production timelines are discussed individually for each commission, since the complexity varies significantly between pieces.
Can a sculptural table still be used as a functional table?
Yes. Every sculptural piece from Leonardo Gravina is fully usable — as a dining table, console, or statement centerpiece — while still standing on its own as an art installation. This is the core philosophy behind the brand: the table adapts to the client’s interior, not the other way around.
Who commissions sculptural epoxy tables?
Clients typically fall into two groups: private collectors furnishing a home with statement pieces, and hospitality or design professionals looking for a centerpiece that tells a story. One example is the Harmony piece, created in collaboration with gemstone collector Jochen Leën and now on permanent display at his hotel, La Butte aux Bois in Lanaken.
FAQ
Is a sculptural epoxy table the same as a regular epoxy dining table?
No. A regular epoxy dining table is built for daily use with a resin-finished surface. A sculptural table is conceived as an art piece first, with the table function built around the sculpture — not the other way around.
Do sculptural pieces cost more than standard custom tables?
Yes, generally. The extended casting process, embedded materials, and one-of-a-kind design work place sculptural pieces at the higher end of the collection.
Can I request a custom sculptural design that isn’t shown online?
Yes. Every piece is built from scratch around your vision — nothing is limited to what’s currently displayed.
Are sculptural tables shipped internationally?
Yes, worldwide, with air freight in a custom crate, full insurance, and all customs paperwork handled — the same all-inclusive process as every Leonardo Gravina piece.
