Tobi-Ishi Coffee Table

Product Description
Known as ‘the table that became a sculpture’, Tobi-Ishi was created by acclaimed design duo Edward Barber & Jay Osgerby and was their first project for B&B Italia. Barber & Osgerby are great enthusiasts of Japanese art and culture and the actual shape of this design was inspired by the shape of smooth stones seen in Japanese Zen gardens. The creative shape of this design is crafted from two solid wood legs and a veneered wood top in light, black, smoked or grey oak, each observational point conveys a different shape.
