About Cross Furniture Meja Kopi

Cross Furniture adalah meja kopi bongkar pasang yang dirancang untuk hunian berukuran kecil, dilengkapi dengan dudukan tanpa sandaran yang serasi. Cross Furniture dibuat dari kayu solid, kulit apel, akrilik, dan semen. Struktur sambungan purus dan lubang (mortise and tenon) tradisional menyatukan setiap bagiannya, sehingga tidak diperlukan sekrup. Perakitan hanya membutuhkan dua atau tiga langkah, dan hasil akhirnya kokoh serta tahan lama. Kakinya mengikuti bentuk apron melengkung khas furnitur gaya Ming, menghadirkan tampilan yang sederhana dan tenang. Bentuk kemasan datar (flat pack) menekan biaya pengiriman serta cocok untuk penjualan daring dan bagi mereka yang sering berpindah tempat tinggal.
