Faifo Collection: A tribute to gatherings and conviviality

Faifo Collection: A tribute to gatherings and conviviality

Named after Hội An’s former moniker, the Faifo Collection draws inspiration from the city’s rich cultural tapestry. Once a vibrant trading port in Central Vietnam, Hội An welcomed merchants from across the Far East - and this spirit of exchange and togetherness lives on in the pieces of this collection.

Designed by District Eight, the Faifo Collection features three distinct table types, each crafted to elevate different living spaces with thoughtful functionality and artisanal character.

In this collection, District Eight uses solid fir wood with 2 finishes - burned fir and light fir -  each piece is 100% hand-finished, showcasing a textured grain that adds depth, tactility, and a quiet elegance to the timber surface. This artisanal treatment not only highlights the natural character of the wood but also reflects District Eight’s dedication to refined craftsmanship.

Faifo Rectangular Dining Table 

A centerpiece for both everyday dining and festive gatherings, the Faifo Rectangular Dining Table is defined by its sculptural wing leg system that offers generous legroom and flexible seating. The hand-finished timber lends natural warmth, a tactile appeal, and timeless elegance to the dining experience. 

Available in different sizes and colours:

Faifo Round Dining Table  

Crafted to bring people together, the Faifo Round Dining Table pays homage to traditional dining rituals. Its circular design often features a natural marble Lazy Susan at its largest size, while the triple or quadruple wing legs provide open, unobstructed seating around the table. Like the rest of the collection, its timber surface is meticulously hand-finished for both durability and touchable warmth. 

Note for Lazy Susan: Each natural stone is subjected to a different, unique surface & tone.
