The Casalino is back! Popular in the seventies, forgotten in theeighties. We wanted to introduce Casalino again, so Casala (theoriginal manufacturer) started a hunt for the original moulds. Theyfound them at a depot in Antalya and bought them back. This meansCasalino is not a remake, it’s an original. And still as beautiful asit ever was. Casalino shows up well everywhere, at home and in thegarden, at the office and on the patio.

Also in the range:

• Casalino Armchair
• Casalino Stool
• Casalino Table

The designer, Alexander Begge, born in 1941, designed only one furniture line: Casalino.“I never made one drawing for this line”, he remembers. “I had animage of a wisp of fog and elaborated on that. It gave so much joy, Iwas in a whirl. The Casala factory had a siren which sounded severaltimes a day. When the siren sounded at the end of a working day, Ithought it was time for a coffee break. I had forgotten everythingaround me”.

Despite this joy Alexander Begge never designed furnitureagain. He trained as a potter and founded a firm in the furnaceconstruction industry.

The Casalino tables were designed by Jonas Kressel and Ivo Schelle in 2007.
