About the Item

An Indonesian colonial-era coffee table, handcrafted from solid old-growth teak, celebrated for its density, durability, and warm patina. The piece features exposed mortise-and-tenon corner joinery, a sign of traditional woodworking techniques passed down through generations. Its bold, architectural legs are deeply faceted and hand-carved, anchoring the table with an understated monumentality. Surface tool marks, weathered grain, and natural imperfections add depth and character, revealing its long and utilitarian history—possibly once serving as a platform or weaving table before being repurposed into a low coffee table. An exceptional piece that bridges primitive elegance and modern restraint—ideal for wabi-sabi, brutalist, or organic interiors.
