Paperwood coffee table, black

Ariake’s Paperwood coffee table is made of ash. The beautiful black shade showing the wood’s natural grain has been achieved by painting the table with ink according to a traditional Japanese technique. In addition to the colour, attention is captured by the visual lightness of the design, accentuated by the tapered legs and the thin gap in the middle of them, letting a sliver of light through. The coffee table is made in Japan.

Ariake is a collaboration between two Japanese furniture companies, Legnatec and Hirata Chair. The brand’s collection consists of furniture drawing from Japanese and Scandinavian aesthetics, designed by well-known international designers. Named after the Ariake sea, a bay surrounded by different prefectures on the Kyushyu island, the name Ariake (Japanese for ”daybreak”) symbolises a new beginning for the two companies.
