Zanat Ombra Table
OMBRA TABLE
OMBRA TABLE
Ombra Table is a unique piece of furniture constructed by joining together tiny “Penrose Prototiles” in solid walnut. These specific prototiles are named after Sir. Roger Penrose, a famous British mathematician who first investigated them in 1970s. The prototiles have remarkable geometric and visual properties.
For one, they are aperiodic, meaning that a shifted copy of the original set of prototiles will never look the same: the pattern does not repeat! The designer brilliantly joined the prototiles in the tabletop in a way to create an abstract tree shade. Ombra Table is made with environment in mid by utilizing small pieces of wood likely to end up as production waste.

“Zanat for me represents the joy of work both in process, and result. Here it is a part of business culture to support the creative process and to respect a designer’s vision.With the beauty of wood and the poetical skill of woodcarvers, Zanat is a precious environment for designers.”
Born in 1972, Jasna Mujkić is an associate professor at Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo. In addition to her teaching career, Jasna is an active product designer, with a special interest in furniture design.
She is the author of an official arts textbook used in Bosnian public schools. Her designes have been exhibited in a number of international design exhibtions.
Jasna was the first designer who collaborated with Zanat (then Rukotvorine) on the modernization of its hand-carved motifs and their application to products of modern design (e.g. Quiet chair and stool). Jasna’s Ombra coffee table (designed for Zanat) is the winner of the Interior Innovation Award – IMM 2012.
Jasna Mujkić is the first professional designer who has created a modern design piece for our company, five years before Zanat was officially launched. The objects Jasna designed for Zanat, like the Ombra tables, are still admired by some of the elite designers we are collaborating with Jasna opened our eyes to an endless world of design creations based on the woodcarving technique we have practiced without much innovation in design for almost a century. We have continued this collaboration on different kind of creative projects until the present day.

WARRANTY
Zanat provides a five-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects in standard products (materials and workmanship). Wear, tear and product damages is not covered under this warranty. The claims will not cover minor checks in wood, which result from relative humidity changes. Cracks in wood that result as a consequence of air humidity outside the above-indicated safe range, discolorations resulting from direct exposure of products to sunlight or otherwise improper use will not be covered under the warranty. Claims from end users must be submitted to the dealer from whom the product was purchased in order to be considered.

WOOD
All wood used in Zanat’s products comes from sustainably managed forests or private fruit orchards (walnut and cherry). FSC certificates for forest-originating wood are available upon request. Moreover, in 2021 Zanat undertook a commitment to plant three new trees for every tree we used to produce our products.
Color variations and small healthy knots in wood are indications of material authenticity and cannot be considered a defect. Wood is a hygroscopic material which absorbs and sheds moisture to adopt to the humidity of the environment in which it is placed and it expands or shrinks as a consequence. To minimize checking and cracking, all Zanat products should be kept indoors (outdoors use is OK if protected from precipitation and direct sunlight) and air humidity should not be less than 40% or more than 70%. Humidity outside this range is not optimal for human health and can result in product damage.
