Japanese Antique Low Table (Zataku), Meiji Era (1868–1912), Wabi Sabi
Located in Hitachiomiya-shi, 08
This antique low table was crafted in the Meiji Era (1868–1912) from Japanese sugi (cedar) wood, finished with Urushi (traditional Japanese lacquer).
This elegant low table embodies the essence of Japanese living, designed for use while seated on tatami mats or the floor—a practice rooted in centuries of tradition. Crafted from sugi, a softwood prized for its warm grain and natural resilience, the table is finished in deep black Urushi that has weathered beautifully over more than a century. The surface tells a story of use and time: gentle wear, subtle scratches, and a mellow patina that speaks to the quiet beauty of wabi-sabi. The design is refreshingly simple—a generous rectangular top supported by a minimal frame with clean lines and understated joinery. At just 9.4 inches tall, it sits low to the ground, inviting a slower, more grounded way of living. Perfect as a coffee table, meditation...

Vintage Coffee Tables and Cocktail Tables for Sale: Shop Mid-Century Coffee Tables, Travertine Coffee Tables and Marble Cocktail Tables on 1stDibs
As a practical focal point in your living area, antique and vintage coffee tables and cocktail tables are an invaluable addition to any interior.
Low tables that were initially used as tea tables or coffee tables have been around since at least the mid- to late-1800s. Early coffee tables surfaced in Victorian-era England, likely influenced by the use of tea tables in Japanese tea gardens. In the United States, furniture makers worked to introduce low, long tables into their offerings as the popularity of coffee and “coffee breaks” took hold during the late 19th century and early 20th century.
It didn’t take long for coffee tables and cocktail tables to become a design staple and for consumers to recognize their role in entertaining no matter what beverages were being served. Originally, these tables were as simple as they are practical — as high as your sofa and made primarily of wood. In recent years, however, metal, glass and plastics have become popular in coffee tables and cocktail tables, and design hasn’t been restricted to the conventional low profile, either.
Visionary craftspeople such as Paul Evans introduced bold, geometric designs that challenge the traditional idea of what a coffee table can be. The elongated rectangles and wide boxy forms of Evans’s desirable Cityscape coffee table, for example, will meet your needs but undoubtedly prove imposing in your living space.
If you’re shopping for an older coffee table to bring into your home — be it an antique Georgian-style coffee table made of mahogany or walnut with decorative inlays or a classic square mid-century modern piece comprised of rosewood designed by the likes of Ettore Sottsass — there are a few things you should keep in mind.
Both the table itself and what you put on it should align with the overall design of the room, not just by what you think looks fashionable in isolation. According to interior designer Tamara Eaton, the material of your vintage coffee table is something you need to consider. “With a glass coffee table, you also have to think about the surface underneath, like the rug or floor,” she says. “With wood and stone tables, you think about what’s on top.”
Find the perfect centerpiece for any room, no matter what your personal furniture style on 1stDibs — shop Art Deco coffee tables, travertine coffee tables and other antique and vintage coffee tables and cocktail tables today.
