Origami-Inspired Angles on a 1" Diamond-Honed Slate Bed — A Modern Pool Table Built for Calm, Precise Spaces
A sculptural centerpiece handcrafted in California, with the measured geometry of Japanese paper art.
Most pool tables ask you to build the room around them. The White Billiards Kyoto is the rare table that earns that request. Its folded, angular silhouette — drawn from origami and Asian minimalist design — brings a calm, architectural presence to contemporary and transitional interiors that no mass-produced import can match. Under that striking exterior sits a 1" diamond-honed, wood-backed 3-piece slate bed, 100% solid hardwood frame, 21oz Teflon-coated championship cloth, and pro-grade KK6 cushion rubber — built by skilled artisans in California, made specifically for your space, and available in 7', 8', and 9' sizes. This is a piece designed to be the most deliberate thing in the room.

Optional Table Tennis Converter Top
Add the ping pong top (sold separately) to expand functionality without compromising the Kyoto's clean aesthetic and smooth geometry.
Who It's For — The Deck & Den Take
›
The Deck & Den Take — If you want the closest thing to a professional playing experience, the 8' size is White Billiards' own professional standard for the Kyoto line. The origami-inspired base reads best in rooms with clean, minimal furniture around it — let the table's angles be the statement piece rather than competing with a busy room. Because every Kyoto is made to order, build in extra lead time before any event you're hoping to host on it.
