Face or vase?...just a great table

 

  F'n'V Table

...okay for the more delicate amongst us one can refer to it as the Face & Vase Table and we'll still know which table you're talking about....but do try to stick one's tongue in one's cheek and call it the F'n'V table...just once...mind the wind doesn't change direction, lest the idea sticks....

The optical illusion that refuses to age....is it two faces or is it a vase? Well, now you can decide along with your friends as you share many a night of fun and frolics around the F 'n' V table. The trick to making the illusion work is...oh no, you're not getting to learn that little trick.

Construction is marine plywood for the support structure - the horizontal parts are recessed into the verticals to give a clean line. A nice, thick red glass top finishes things off nicely. Edges of the supports are simply varnished to reveal the material beneath and add just a little extra magic...

...and yes, a debt of gratitude is owed to Piet Mondrian for the colour scheme...obviously the colour scheme, including the glass top, is easily adapted to each client's taste.
