Reliability, quality and design are in this case more than ever synonymous to the well known Made in Italy product and are actually the most important characteristic. According to KOBLENZ, the idea is to represent the four natural elements: earth, air, water and fire, with the addition of the fifth element which is represented by the space (the infinity), used as a meeting room. All of them are entirely 
realized in worked glass with photographic images of high quality and emotional impact, and are made even more precious by design doors: the elegant visible sliding system K2O, enriched by refined handle Circle.Tuesday, June 14, 2016.
