Re-edited by Cassina for the first time in 2014, it gave rise to a collection that includes several iterations, all while staying true to the original designs. Now, working closely with Pernette Perriand-Barsac, daughter and sole heir of Charlotte Perriand, Cassina introduces the Mexique tables and stools in new versions for en plein air enjoyment to the max.
The iconic triangular shape with bevelled edges - originally designed to make the best use of the available space - remains the unmistakable trait in the Mexique Outdoor line, launched this year as a low table, dining table and high table with matching stool, available in two heights.
Thanks to this vast and varied product range, it is possible to mix and match the various styles to create dynamic, free-form arrangements in absolute Charlotte Perriand spirit.
As is true of all the works in the Cassina I Maestri Collection, each piece is authenticated by the Cassina logo, Charlotte Perriand’s signature and by a serial number that corresponds to the data on its ID card.

movement which, from the first decades of the twentieth century, brought
about a profound change in aesthetic values and gave birth to a truly
modern sensitivity towards everyday life. In this context, her specific
contribution focuses on interior composition, conceived as creating a
new way of living, still today at the heart of contemporary lifestyle.
The iconic triangular shape with bevelled edges - originally designed to make the best use of the space - is the unmistakable feature of the Mexique Outdoor tables, as well. The bar table can be paired with the design stool from the same family.
