Processed mother-of-pearl is known as “Najeon,”
and lacquered objects are referred to as “Chilgi.”
When these two traditional crafts are combined,
the work is commonly called “Najeonchilgi,” or mother-of-pearl lacquerware.
This piece follows the traditional craftsmanship of Najeonchilgi
while embodying Ottio’s unique sensibility and design language.
It reinterprets the form and function of the Sobahn —
a traditional Korean low table used in floor-seated culture —
in a contemporary way.
The tabletop can be separated and used as a plate,
while the lower box provides storage for tea utensils or small objects,
adding practical functionality to its refined form.
