Description
The distinctive profile of the Noguchi coffee table from Vitra has been redesigned in solid oak, in this exclusive colourway for John Lewis & Partners. Making a striking centrepiece in any living area, its sculpted profile is crafted from a 19mm glass tabletop that rests on curved, triangular solid oak legs. This timeless piece includes a special addition badge, that's located on the base of the table. Noguchi himself described this Coffee Table as his best furniture design, as it translates the concepts of his beautiful sculptures into a functional piece of furniture for the heart of your home. At its launch, the Noguchi coffee table was described as ‘sculpture-for-use’ and ‘design for production’. The shape of the two wooden supports produces a self-supporting and stable base, allowing the heavy plate glass top to be placed without the use of connectors. Want to see it first?

A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
