A preeminent sculptor and artist, Isamu Noguchi began working with Herman Miller in the 1940's, and the resulting Noguchi Table was met with critical acclaim. The stunning coffee table is still available today. The Japanese American artist took materials such as stone, metal, wood, clay, bone, and paper and carved them into graceful, organic shapes. The Noguchi Coffee Table joins a curved, solid wood base with a freeform glass top. This balance of sculptural form and everyday function has made the Noguchi Table an understated and beautiful element in homes and offices since its introduction in 1948.
