Use cask wood to create new design items. The company San Patrignano Prodotti e Servizi Società Cooperativa Sociale is launching for next year the first “At the table” contest.

Participants will have to design an item of furniture connected with the table using and making the most of the wood of the barriques, 225/228-litre casks. Other materials can also be used to complement the item (e.g. iron, glass, and other types of wood).

Six designs shall be selected in total, three for each participation class. As a reward, the item shall be put into production by the San Patrignano joinery, which shall have the exclusive right to the economic use of the designs for an indefinite period of time. As a consideration, the related designer shall receive royalties in the amount of 5% on the sales price.
