Coexist - Oni Coffee Table

The Oni Coffee Table is a low table with an organically shaped variegated stone top and three short brushed metal legs, from the Coexist collection by Slash Objects.

Arielle Assouline-Lichten selected a stone for the Oni whose coloring does not resolve into a single tone. The top shows shifting fields of green, beige, and reddish-brown with veining that runs in no fixed direction, giving each table a character specific to the block it came from. The form of the top is irregular rather than rectangular, following the natural contour of the stone rather than imposing geometry on it. Three short cylindrical legs in brushed silver-toned metal support the piece; their machined precision sets off the organic quality of the stone above.

Variegated stone of this type forms through the slow deposition of mineral layers over geological time. The color range within a single slab can span the full warm-to-cool spectrum. No two Oni Coffee Tables are identical, and the design by Arielle Assouline-Lichten makes that condition central rather than incidental.

Part of the Coexist collection, the Oni Coffee Table is made to order by skilled artisans and available through Monde Singulier.
