Greetings :) .
Stephan here, and this is my first post. I'm a self employed interior designer with architectural aspirations (though it's a bit late for that now).
My partner and I have also engaged architects to design a beach house, which is coming along.... slowly. For someone in the industry it's an interesting state of being to take a back seat and have somebody else design a house for you; I was going to do it myself but decided to use architects whose work we enjoyed.

Now for my ulterior motive; a question.....

I've been wasting a lot of time searching for a table and hope somebody may know what I'm talking about.....
It is a timber dining table with a rather bulbous turned base, not dissimilar to the Eames walnut stool in it's "flavour". My last known sighting of said table was several years ago in a magazine featuring the outrageously decorated Sicillian villa of the fashion guys Dolce & Gabbana.
I've googled what seems like a thousand different ways and scoured too many furniture websites to no avail :roll:.
Is there anyone out there familiar with this table?

Cheers!
Stephans

Is this the eames walnut stool to which you refer?

Interesting if it is. Well don't know if I'll come across it but we'll keep it in mind.

Yep. It sure is.
As I mentioned, the dining table has a similar "flavour" but isn't an enlarged version of the Eames stool. From memory the turned base has a large bulb at the center point.

Thanks for your interest Brad.
