Designer
Zataku coffee table by Saburo Inui, created in the 1960s for Tendo Mokko. Saburo Inui, a leading figure in Japanese design, reshaped furniture history by blending traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation. As the technical director of Tendo Mokko, Inui played a pivotal role in the company's growth, renowned for its bentwood creations and minimalist, yet functional designs.
Crafted from rosewood and teck wood, this coffee table is distinguished by its organic, curved form. The thick, meticulously crafted tabletop is enhanced by a beautiful interplay of wood grain, while the gently curved legs seamlessly extend the fluidity of the shape, creating a harmonious balance between elegance and functionality.
Originally designed as a dining table for traditional Japanese interiors, its refined silhouette and timeless appeal now make it an ideal coffee table for contemporary spaces.
The vintage Tendo Mokko logo is stamped on the underside of the tabletop.
