The Gemini Coffee Table takes its name and its logic from the night sky. Rooted in the geometry of the Gemini constellation, the design translates celestial mapping into a physical structure: three cast bronze pillars, each bearing the scarred, textured surface of something forged rather than fabricated, support a wide slab of white thassos marble that extends beyond them with the ease of something weightless. The composition reads as both ancient and precise, a cosmological diagram rendered in stone and metal

At each corner of the marble, a cast bronze triangle emerges as a deliberate formal accent—pyramidal, tactile, carrying the same deeply worked surface as the base. These elements are not decorative; they are structural thinking made visible, recalling the coordinates of a star map pressed into matter. Together, the three points establish a quiet order beneath the expanse of stone, a geometry that holds without imposing

Handcrafted in Italy, the Gemini Coffee Table exists as a spatial gesture as much as a functional object, where mass and luminosity, permanence and fragility are held in careful equilibrium. Each tabletop is drawn from carefully selected natural stone, ensuring that no two pieces are alike—the veining, the tonal shifts, the subtle variations in surface are not imperfections but the authentic signature of material shaped by time itself

BIOGRAPHY

Jean-Yves Lanvin

Born Paris, France, 1965

A French artist based in Milan, Lanvin creates limited-edition sculptural furniture with rare and exquisite minerals, jewelry-like finishes, and striking profiles. His visionary works sit at the intersection between art and design, characterized by a sculptural approach emphasizing asymmetrical and strong lines. His creations celebrate the rich history of European craftsmanship and contemporary innovation with fine metals, noble stones, and rare minerals

Sculptural yet functional, elegant yet robust, experimental yet rooted in history, his works explore the design tension between balance and imbalance, both in the construction and appearance of the work. He is drawn to the sense of anticipation engendered by irregularity, and the challenge of creating a work that is both elegant and wild, rough and sleek

Heir to the Lanvin family, he spent his childhood in a rarified world of with elegance, creativity and artistry. After working in finance for Lazard Frères in New York and Salomon Brothers in London, he embraced his passion for art and design, representing fine French design houses, through which he gained a deep knowledge of foundries, the casting process, and fine metalwork. Lanvin works closely with heritage artisans at his atelier in Tuscany to produce each of his unique works
