Katu BAMBOO OVAL TABLE｜TRADITIONAL PATTERN｜104 × 57 cm
A large oval bamboo table handcrafted by Katu people in southern Laos.
Its gently elongated form resembles a gourd or the hull of a boat. Measuring 104 cm in width, the generous tabletop is suited to meals or tea shared by several people, as well as arranging tableware, teaware, plants, and other objects.
The table is constructed in three woven layers, providing stability while remaining relatively lightweight and easy to move. Its distinctive details include a finely woven traditional bamboo pattern, the contrast created by the intricate weave, careful finishing, and legs that form a gentle curve beneath the tabletop.
The light-colored bamboo has been moderately exposed to smoke while stored in a space with a traditional cooking hearth, developing a beautiful ochre tone.
