Rotational moulding was invented for water tanks and kayaks. Powdered polyethylene goes into a heated mould, the mould turns slowly on two axes until the powder fuses to the walls, and what comes out is a single hollow shell with no seam anywhere on it. Italian manufacturers worked out that the same process would make furniture, and more to the point that it would make shapes no cabinetmaker could ever cut.

Myyour's Lily line is one of those shapes, and the hollow is the whole point of it. The well sunk into the top is an ice bucket, deep enough to stand a bottle in and keep it there. The shell underneath takes a lamp that twists up into the base so the table can be lit from within, which ours does not have. And because it was moulded rather than assembled there is nothing glued, nothing fixed and nothing that can work loose, which is also why it does not mind weather. It was built to be carried outside and left there.
