Gui Coffee Round Table Medium
The Gui collection embodies the resilience and spirit of Vietnam’s highlands through its interpretation of the traditional Gùi – a woven back-basket. Each table mirrors the Gùi’s shape - a round top symbolizing the sky, and a square base grounding it to the earth, reflecting a cycle where the sky nourishes the land.
The collection’s lacquered finish nods to East Asian artistry, celebrating centuries-old techniques while bringing a touch of contemporary sophistication. This intersection of culture and modern design gives the Gui tables their unique narrative depth, and versatility for various living spaces.
