tavolo con piano in massello/legno massiccio


Explanation:
Il piano è la parte superiore di un tavolo o altro mobile, il ripiano è il piano di una scaffalatura, elemento orizzontale di un armadio... Legno massiccio e massello sono equivalenti

neutral  Angie Garbarino: beh no, sono accettati entrambi, in italiano, quello che tu dici, per quanto ne so si applica al francese "en bois" (ad esempio) e non "de bois" (brrr che brutto) ma in italiano "di legno" o "in legno" vanno bene entrambi,
