ACCENT TABLE

Paulownia is one of the world's lightest hardwoods — and one of the most underrated. This accent table makes the most of it: featherlight to move, warm to the touch, and finished to let the wood's natural, fine-grained beauty do the talking.

At 28cm x 28cm and 42cm tall, it's a petite but purposeful piece. Tuck it beside an armchair for your morning coffee, use it as a plant pedestal, or let it hold a candle and a few small objects in a corner that needs a little life. Sometimes the smallest pieces make the biggest difference.
