Sebastian Herkner - Bell Table




Now these are what I call tables!! These little beauties come from designer Sebastian Herkner, a German designer who is based in Offenbach am Main just on the outskirts of Frankfurt. His work is full of elegance and energy. I love the mild juxtaposition too these tables. Usually for this style of table, the base would be metal and the top glass but Herkner switches the two and creates a beautiful symmetry. The glass base is hand blown and comes in different colours, shapes and creates a sculptural air. The solid brass frame contrasts perfectly, the whole piece is inspired by the elegant shape of a bell. Hence it's name, Bell Table. I love how simple the design is, yet when you look a bit closer it's complexity becomes apparent. Plus I am definitely digging that whole pink and green scheme...yes! You can get them from ClassiCon and find out more information about Sebastians work here
