SPIKY TABLE

A side table that bristles with character.

We adore the detailed, clever, witty designs of the maker’s furniture and sculptural objects. The technical know-how and patient assembly that goes into each piece are very impressive. There is probably an aspect of this that appeals to the scientific or mathematically minded, given the advance planning and accuracy needed to assemble all the separate pieces.

We ourselves prefer to sit back and enjoy the overall effect of the beautifully finished piece.

The Spiky Table makes a great whisky station – or tea station, depending on one’s preference. Its tall proportions also make it a suitable podium on which to display an interesting object in the corner of a room. This could be a pot or sculpture, or even a plant, for a modern day take on Victorian plant table.

As with all the maker’s furniture, this table is beautifully made. It is not to everyone’s taste, given the more challenging design but it has plenty of character. It is an eye-catching, showy, fun piece of furniture that contrasts well with smooth lines elsewhere in a space.
