Dining table by Alessandro Albrizzi, Italy 1970s
Located in Athens, Attiki
Lucite, brass and glass dining table by Alessandro Albrizzi, Italy 1970s.
Alessandro Albrizzi opened up his first of many shops all over the world in 1968 at One Sloan Square in London. When the words "Jet Set" meant following the sun in Pucci prints to a bossa nova beat.

Albrizzi furniture and objects compliment a wide variety of styles from Baroque to Bauhaus. "Albrizzi is a crisp foil to good antiques," says Peter Vaughn, Managing Director of Albrizzi Design...

French Burl Elm Slab Dining Table, or Desk
Located in Chicago, IL
This thick 2” slab of 40 year old French elm was found in the backyard of a famous French furniture maker, who unfortunately closed his doors after 60 years in business. The beauty of the slab speaks for itself, for I cannot think of any words that could accurately describe what Mother Nature created. Whether you use it for a desk, like I have for many years, or a dining table, or ever a kitchen island work table...
