The Saibi series of cups and trays is a collaboration between Danish designer Lars Vejen and Gato Woodworks organized in celebration of 150 years of diplomatic relations between Denmark and Japan. With a slightly more minimalist aesthetic than Gato’s typical offerings, these pieces are designed to provide a uniquely elegant take on practical, everyday items.
About Gato
Hailing from the Yamanaka region of Japan, where lacquering has been practiced since the 16th century, Gato’s collection of beautiful vessels is born from traditional techniques requiring the highest level of skill. Through meticulous cutting, carving, shaving, and lacquering, the artisans at Gato manage to mold wood into works of art that pay homage to their arboreal origins. Each lightweight piece showcases an exquisite wood grain unmarred by the production process and is as functional as it is beautiful.
