Exclusive modern table - Malabar

Frank Lloyd Wright, the renowned American architect and leading figure of the Prairie school, took us on a journey through modernist design, and Malabar designed the Volute Side Table, part of the same family as the Volute Dining Table, blending organic building design with marquetry techniques. This modern and conceptual table features a top made from extra-transparent glass with a lacquered iron frame finished with a high-gloss lacquer.

It is supported by a base composed of deciduous wood and lacquered layered wood finished with a high-gloss lacquer. This artistic piece is an enigmatic decorative element suitable for any interior.

Malabar, founded in 2012, introduced a wide range of decorative guitars Fado and the stylish collection of furniture called World Architects to the market. The brand has designed and released a total of 5 exceptional furniture and accessory collections.

Malabar has showcased its work at major international fairs such as 100% Design London, Maison & Objet, Decorex, Stockholm Furniture Fair, and Seoul International. These are among the top venues for exposure.

Malabar’s furniture production comes from the Porto area, in northern Portugal, a region with a long-standing tradition of handcrafted products.

The identity of this prestigious brand is rooted in the architectural and artistic heritage of the past five centuries.

International experience and a pursuit of perfection are the details that define such original companies. Emotions, handcrafted craftsmanship, and space-inspired design create an explosive mix of exclusive furniture.

The use of various techniques in producing natural wood products results in incredible effects, as seen in Malabar’s exceptional collections. An important aspect of their design is the combination of neutral and black colors.

Vivid and striking colors dominate, significantly deviating from traditional and stereotypical furniture.

Besides wood, the manufactory uses brass, gold and silver leaf, as well as other high-quality raw materials.

The Portuguese soul is very colorful and fascinating, clearly reflected in their bold furniture designs.

The company’s name derives from the Malabar black pepper. Along with other spices, it changed the course of trade history with the discovery of the Cape. The value of original spices prompted Portuguese merchants to chart a daring sea route.

This remains true today, as Malabar continues to define highly individual design boundaries and evokes strong emotions with its projects. Their creations are very liberated, seductive, daring, and extremely luxurious.

And these are exactly the kinds of products we love to feature on the My Luxury Products platform.
