Sister Table is an unassuming, utilitarian coffee table that takes cues from a stone sink in the Sister's Diary at Hancock Shaker Village, a 19th century American utopian community. A group of international designers was invited to visit the archives and study Shaker household objects.

Sister Table was originally designed for Furnishing Utopia, an influential exhibition of objects inspired by that visit to the archives. The exhibition received numerous awards and travelled from New York to Stockholm.

Sister Table has friendly rounded corners, a handy carrying handle, and a lip around the edge that holds everything neatly in place.
