The tables were debuted at Salone del Mobile 2022 and come in several different forms to choose from. Each of the tables are crafted with a black enameled lava stone tabletop with a Nerosicilia shade around the base for a waterproof finish. The tables can be used with or without lighting and pay homage to the Japanese paper lanterns (andon) for a wondrous touch inside a living space.

The Nendo andon table maintains a minimalist design that's also inherently functional to ensure it meets the needs of today's modern consumer. The tables are suited for living rooms or even bedrooms, according to consumer preferences.
