Amazing Coffee Tables Where the Glass is Water and the Base is an Animal


Since 1997, artist and designer Derek Pearce has been creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind ‘water tables‘ where the glass represents the surface of a body of water and the base consists of animals like hippopotamuses, dolphins, otters and seals.

These ‘furniture sculptures’ are made from tempered glass with animals either carved from wood or cast from resin. Derek’s ‘Water Tables’ have been exhibited and sold across the globe.

Sparkle Tables that Come to Life with Sunlight

Minneapolis-based designer John Foster has created a beautiful series of custom tables that sparkle when the sunlight shines on them. Glass tabletops are placed on a series of ‘reversed pyramid cut glass crystals’ which split the natural light into hundreds of rainbow reflections on the surrounding walls and floors. Regarding his approach to design, Foster explains:

“I want my objects to influence our experience. I embrace chance, and allow the experiential aspect of my work to inform the composition of prints, paintings, sculptures, utilitarian objects, and jewelry.”
