or Call to Order

The Tobi-Ishi Dining and Coffee table from B&B Italia Outdoor are an achieve­ment of volume manip­u­la­tion and surface treat­ment. Upon first glance, Tobi-Ishi’s seem­ingly mono­lithic construc­tion appears massive and heavy – aesthet­ics not produced by the stone itself but rather by an unex­pected combi­na­tion of mate­ri­als. The table’s top and base are made of special cement (Ultra-High-Perfor­mance Concrete) and galva­nized sheet metal explic­itly made for outdoor use. 

Both Tobi-Ishi dining and coffee are avail­able as part of our quick-ship program. Please see the spec sheet to the left for quick-ship details or call 800.886.0867 for more information.
