Tightly woven rattan in a deep black finish with open scrolled bases — this set of two tables brings a moodier, more contemporary character than the natural version of the Mataram nesting tables.
Black rattan carries a very different character to its natural counterpart — where natural rattan is warm and earthy, the black finish introduces something more graphic and considered. These two nesting tables carry that contrast well: the tightly woven round tops are detailed and artisanal, while the open scrolled bases feel modern and deliberate without being fussy.
They work particularly well in rooms where the palette leans dark or richly toned — think charcoal walls, dark timber flooring, or deeply coloured soft furnishings. The scrolled base means they don’t read as heavy despite the finish, and light passes through them in a way that keeps the design open rather than weighty.
As a set, they offer genuine flexibility — use them together as nesting tables beside a sofa, or place them separately as occasional tables across the room. Crafted from 100% rattan, they’re entirely natural in material even if the finish is far from understated.
