Accent Tables: Natural wonders
Lori Lester -- Home Accents Today, 6/1/2007
Equal parts ecological and stylish, with a pinch of exoticism, these of-the-moment accent table offerings have something for everyone. Bunched and bundled bases breathe new life into raffia, while evoking sultry locales. Wound abaca brings a new twist to tabletops, and seagrass is as refreshing as an ocean breeze.
Randomly placed rattan sticks in a dark honey wash form the light, airy base of the Havana console table from Environ Trading ($500).
Uniquely bundled rattan legs branch out from a scallop-edged marquetry top in Palecek's island-inspired Cheyenne side table ($560).
Ropes of abaca are wrapped in a three-dimensional circular pattern to create an eye-catching eco-modern end table from Unidesigns ($400).
Shawna Stoney wraps a simple fiberglass frame in tobacco leaves for a richly hued, textured alternative to leather.
A woven seagrass-covered cube from Square Nest does double duty as a casual accent table or an organic ottoman ($60).
