Born in France, plato began with a simple observation across local cellar doors: wine barrels made gorgeous tasting tables, but they lacked functionality. The limited space left glasses wobbling and plates balancing awkwardly.

The solution was a tabletop designed specifically for barrels, preserving their character while expanding usable space for guests to gather. Engineered with a durable powder-coated steel top, plato created a striking contrast between timber and refined industrial craft.

Now, plato begins its journey in Australia.

Individually crafted in Melbourne from powder-coated galvanised steel, each piece delivers a robust, weather-resistant finish suited to the elements. From cellar doors and breweries to entertaining at home, plato is built for gathering.
