LEYU, TABLE WITH SENEGALESE BASKETS

This table is a reinterpretation of Hans Wegner’s iconic coffee table, a design that has evolved into a widely recognised archetype. It combines this modern classic with the beauty and cultural significance of traditional Senegalese woven baskets. By transposing, translating, and recontextualising elements of local heritage, the piece contributes to a richer and more diverse vision of contemporary cosmopolitan living. Designed for versatility, it can function as a coffee table, a magazine or knitting holder, a storage unit, a kitchen organiser, or a bedside table, accommodating baskets of different depths and diameters to suit a variety of uses.
