Sagana Nesting Coffee Tables
Handcrafted by By Faith Furnitures in 005, Upper Savannah, Nairobi, Kenya
The Sagana Nesting Coffee Tables are a pair of round coffee tables handcrafted in Kenya from metal and marble. The two tops sit at different heights, one tucking beneath the other so the set reads as a single sculptural piece or separates into two. Each frame is shaped and joined by hand, and the fluted column at the centre of the lower table shows the patience that goes into metalwork of this kind. Both surfaces are marble, pale and lightly polished, crossed by veining that runs from grey to soft gold. The metal is finished in a warm golden tone and drawn into narrow bands that edge each top, then continue down into slender legs and a low circular stretcher. Proportions are kept quiet: round tops, no corners, and a base open enough that the rug beneath stays visible. In a living room, the taller coffee table holds books, a candle and a small bowl within easy reach of a sofa, while the lower one slides out to serve a second seat or a chair across the room. The stone catches daylight and lamplight without glare. Used together, the two tables give a seating group a centre without crowding it. Kenya's furniture workshops have long worked confidently in metal, and pieces like this sit in that tradition rather than apart from it. Buying through Kamara means the table comes from an independent Kenyan maker, made by hand in a small workshop and sold with their name attached to the work.
