The first thing that came to mind when I saw this table was "What would the set of 'Star Trek' look like in Danish Modern?"Personally, I LOVE this table. Very architectural. The legs remind me of what I'd imagine the metal frame of an airplane would look like: thin, arched for stength, perforated for lighter weight.
I was lucky when I got it home (oh, yeah...I got the table after a rather heated bidding war) and found out that it was in really great condition. It needs a bit of touch-up, but nothing major at all.
I have no idea where the table came from. I also can't tell if the table was hand-made or a factory item. I'm like going 60/40 that it's a handmade table. 
The entire piece is made out of 3 pieces of plywood.The holes were not straight-through cuts, but rather graduated to add a bit of depth as well as to to show off the different levels of plywood used. The edges were treated and stained the same way.
Pretty neat little added bit of design, especially if it is indeed a handmade piece.
What do YOU think? Think this might be a great plant stand for Captain Kirk?
OK, this table is UP FOR AUCTION!! Auction starts Monday night, September 5th!
