Really a trio of tables, Cyclade was designed by Gabriel Tan for Herman Miller. The island-like tables can be arranged together or apart, standing at different heights for nesting, and have distinct shapes and qualities that allow for creative configurations. Offered in a range of wood and marble tops, Cyclade possesses a sculptural quality that recalls designs of the celebrated Isamu Noguchi.
