Jagae is a unique coffee table with mother-of-pearl embellishments on lacquerware inlaid furniture. This piece is designed by WKND Lab and handcrafted by a nacre master who has been doing nacre for 50 years. This table was an attempt to make a contemporary piece to escape the typical style of overly decorating figurative ornaments.
