Xai Sculpture Side Table
Description
The Sculpture Side Table is a surrealist creation designed in collaboration with Deyrolle, a renowned Parisian taxidermist. It takes on the whimsical shape of a small lamb, blending art with functionality. The table features a drawer integrated into the lamb’s body, showcasing Dalí’s playful use of surreal motifs. Each Xai table is meticulously crafted from natural lambskin sourced from meat suppliers, ensuring that no animals are harmed in its production. Bronze elements, such as small shoes, enhance its eccentric charm. The Xai is more than just a functional object; it serves as a conversation starter that exemplifies the surreal intersection of art and design.

Brand
BD Barcelona
An eclectic edge and quality manufacturing are cornerstones of BD Barcelona, a design collective founded in 1972 by a handful of young buck architects. The initial goal was to realize their own object and furniture design for their respective projects and on their own terms.
This objective continues, yet other designers have entered its stable, both young such as fellow Barcelona-native Cristian Zuzunaga and legacy heroes such as the late Italian superstar Ettore Sottsass. They have brought to market the flights of fancy of Salvador Dali, and taken on modern challenges by reusing leftover materials in a collection called Remix. The stable of celebrated creatives include Jamie Hayon, Oscar Tuesquets, Stephen Burks, Konstantin Grcic and Doshi Levien.
Beauty guided the founding nonconformists from the start, and it still does as they enter their sixth decade in business. Artisanal craftsmanship—all in Barcelona and surrounding parts–and a luxurious sensibility merge with state-of-the-art technologies and an architect’s practicality.
