Designer
Square Zataku table by Saburo Inui, produced in the 1960s for Tendo Mokko. Saburo Inui, engineer and master of Japanese design, played a pivotal role in the evolution of Tendo Mokko, particularly in the innovative use of bent wood. As the company's technical director, he helped establish Tendo Mokko's reputation, renowned for its creations that seamlessly blend traditional craftsmanship with modern design.
This table stands out for its rounded-edge tabletop and fluid design, where the elegant curves of the surface flow harmoniously into the legs. Crafted with respect for Japanese aesthetics, it combines a minimalist form with a perfect balance of functionality and beauty. The teck wood used in the table provides a rich texture and exceptional durability.
Originally designed as a dining table for traditional Japanese interiors, its timeless and refined silhouette makes it a versatile piece, perfectly suited to contemporary spaces today.
