The Enoki Occasional Table by Ligne Roset is a refined designer side table inspired by the delicate form of the Japanese enoki mushroom. Designed by Barbara Kühne, this sculptural piece features a hand-painted marble-effect finish on lacquered MDF, combining visual lightness with artisanal detail.

Compact and expressive, Enoki brings a decorative and contemporary presence to modern interiors.

Product Description

Playful yet sophisticated, the Enoki Occasional Table explores the relationship between perception and material. Inspired by the slender, organic form of the enoki mushroom, the table is composed of a rounded top supported by a gently tapered base. This creates a silhouette that feels both soft and architectural.

Its defining feature is the hand-painted marble-effect finish. This is a trompe-l’œil technique traditionally used in architecture, which gives the illusion of natural stone – while retaining the lightness and versatility of lacquered MDF.

Each piece is individually finished, resulting in subtle variations that make every table unique. The deep black lacquer enhances the sense of depth and contrast within the painted surface, adding a layer of visual richness.

Lightweight yet durable, Enoki is designed for flexible use. It may be easily re-positioned within a space while maintaining a strong decorative identity.

Design & Concept

Enoki reflects Barbara Kühne’s interest in cross-cultural design and artisanal craftsmanship, drawing on both Western decorative traditions and the expertise of Vietnamese lacquer artisans.

The use of trompe-l’œil introduces a layer of visual intrigue by challenging expectations and presenting a surface that appears mineral yet is in fact carefully painted. This interplay between illusion and reality gives the piece its distinctive character.

Its organic form softens interiors, making it equally suited to minimal spaces or more expressive, layered environments.
