I appreciate furniture that can serve more than one purpose -- in this case, as a seat or side table -- and I love the pretty patterns on these clever, flat-packed Zaishu tables.
Produced in Australia from native plantation pine, each Zaishu is hand-painted or -printed using water-based inks and varnish.

The Antique Kimono Zaishu above features patterns from 16th century Japan, while the Japanese Koi pattern below symbolizes love and friendship.
They're 269 euros (about $378) each from Le Souk.
