Wonderful!
Lovely Cogito! Is it super heavy?
Amazing piece! Do you use it?
Thanks all. It's not very heavy at all, but very sturdy. The top has been coated, so we do use it as a plant, vase and candle stand. Right now we have a nice orchid, candle and one of my antique Clement Massier iridescent vases on it. At some point we may use a lamp on it if I can find the right complimentary form.
this is just absolutely stunning cogito -- very very classy
beautiful! and inspired by Giacometti!
Oh so beautiful!
amazing table!!
Fantastic table!
Cogito I thank you for posting this 9 years ago. I didn't know about it until recently. I made the table and I am so happy to know that you have enjoyed it. I hope it will be around for generations.
