About the Item

From Twentieth showroom in Los Angeles, into a design landscape of biomorphic forms and mid-century modern classics, William Earle introduced ' hal'. Attributed with igniting the design world's fixation with the facet, the irony is that the 'hal' was never about facets ; it is a symmetrical design. The 'Hal' has proven the most successful table of the new century - both for residential and public environments. Twenty three years later William has introduced the 'grail', so named because he feels that it is the form he has been seeking all along. The 'hal' occasional proved to be an even more popular dining table, but the 'grail' is perfectly suited throughout the home. It is a form that can delight and be the belle of the ball as a dining table, and at the same time be beautiful cocktail and side tables in the living room, and a diminutive dock for your evening 'dresser' in the bedroom or the commode ( a size that William refers to as his 'pet block' ). Like the 'hal' the 'grail is symmetrical, yet has more movement than any faceted form. The dining pedestal is shown with a 72" diameter top, included in this listing. The pedestal is also shown in separate listings in two smaller sizes. One may choose the 'charcoal' finish shown, or one of the other finishes suggested. If none are quite right, William delights in referencing more than 100 finishes at his disposal to help his clients find something perfect. About William Earle Producer Joel Silver ( Lethal Weapon, Die Hard, The Matrix ) purchased William's first functional design - a case comprised of four separate hexagonal volumes, and immediately shipped it to his South Carolina home, the Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece 'Auldbrass', for installation. William's 'hal' , designed in 2000, singularly ignited the faceted craze in contemporary design, and continues to be one of the most popular tables in history. William was selected to represent Surface magazine at the Salone del Mobile Milano 2004. Ellen Lupton, the curator of the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum, in 2006 was asked by Metropolis magazine to compare American and European designers, where she said that William Earle stood out as the American Minimalist. In 2008 his 'Nude Descending Table' was commissioned by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and sold through the museum store. William's New York gallery commissioned his 'Woodcutter's Chaise' for the 2012 International Contemporary Furniture Fair in New York City, where it won a Best Design of the Year award from Interior Design magazine. William's work has been published in every design magazine on both sides of the Atlantic, and his work is currently featured as part of the architecture and design program of many major design colleges, including Pratt and the Rhode Island School of Design. At 63, he continues to eschew the opportunities to be mass produced by foreign factories, and hand crafts all of his designs in his South Carolina studio.
