About the Item

Stunning pair of walnut freeform, biomorphic side or end tables with 2 tiers of heavy tempered glass with flared edges secured by solid brass hardware. Top tier is 20 inches high; main tier is 15 inches high. Designed by C. E. Waltman for Tonk Manufacturing Company although this design is clearly influenced by and frequently mis-attributed to Vladimir Kagan's and Adrian Pearsall's designs of the period. Tonk also made coffee table versions with teardrop and boomerang shaped glass. An available option at the time was a Royal Haeger ceramic planter to be inserted in the guitar pick space under the glass. These would be nice as nightstands as well.
