Hono Cafe Table

The Hono Cafe Table and Occasional Table line extends the story of our Hono Stool, drawing on the ancient Japanese technique of Shou Sugi Ban. By charring pine through fire, the wood develops a rich, tactile surface that is both striking and resilient. Each base is hand-charred and finished with a non-toxic clear coat, creating a surface that is as durable as it is expressive. In bringing this time-honored craft into a contemporary table, the Hono Table celebrates material honesty and connects past tradition to modern living.

The Hono Café Table is scaled for intimate gatherings — a morning coffee, a shared meal, or casual conversation — yet its versatility extends into contract and hospitality settings, where warmth and durability are equally essential. More than furniture, it represents narrative design: an object that carries the story of an ancient craft into contemporary spaces. By blending history, materiality, and utility, Hono becomes not just a table, but a conversation piece that adds depth and meaning to the environments it inhabits.
