suna-e /sɯ.na.e/

noun, Japanese

1. Sand drawing. The ancestral art of tracing patterns in sand, as in Zen gardens.

Far more than furniture: a work of art that never repeats itself.

The SUNAE table blends ancestral Japanese art with contemporary design. This concentrate of technology creates ephemeral works in the sand and brings a feeling of calm close to meditation.

Beneath the glass, a magnet guides a steel ball. Silently, it carves, erases and begins again. You choose the pattern, the light and the pace; the sand does the rest.

Handmade · Swiss · Local

Designed, made and assembled in Switzerland.

Entirely designed, made and assembled in Switzerland by local craftspeople, Sunae products are a true mark of quality. Solid wood or metal rings, thermoformed shells, electronics and software: everything is conceived and built in our workshop in Vuadens, Gruyère.

Sunae began with an idea from Vincent Braillard, a microtechnology engineer: to create furniture you never tire of, where mechanics, electronics and software serve contemplation.
