Luxurious garden table made of durable woven fabric - Kenneth Cobonpue

Amazing rattan furniture in various forms, crafted by a virtuoso of rattan design.

Kenneth Cobonpue is a regularly award-winning designer and manufacturer of elegant furniture from Cebu in the Philippines. His transition to design began in 1987, studying industrial design at Pratt Institute in New York. During his studies, he completed leather and woodworking workshops near Florence in Italy. He then studied furniture marketing and production at Export-Akademie Baden-Württemberg in Reutlingen, Germany. All of this was part of private and government scholarship programs. Kenneth returned home to Cebu in 1996 to manage the Interior Crafts of the Islands, Inc., a furniture-making and manufacturing company founded by his mother Betty Cobonpue in 1972. Discovering that avant-garde design could have a new face using natural fibers and materials, Kenneth created functional art pieces that serve as an alternative to Western definitions of modern design. Today, the KENNETH COBONPUE brand is known worldwide for its captivating designs and a rich clientele, including Hollywood stars and members of royal families.
