Dimensions: height 18 cm, width 32.5 cm, depth 43 cm.

The block-shaped top clearly shows the wood grain and carries a finely incised shogi grid, with traces of wear from many years of play.

The table stands on four elegant, faceted legs. Thanks to its compact size and graphic top, it is not only a lovely piece to sit at on the floor, but also a perfect display for small objects, a tea set, a ceramic bowl or a compact ikebana arrangement.

Of course, the top can still be used as an authentic shogi board, but even purely as a decorative element this table brings a warm Japanese atmosphere into any space. See less
