Coffee Wine Table is a hit!
The coffee table had some fairly mundane beginnings. I was shopping with my son who wanted a coffee table for his condo. I was shocked about how boring all the coffee tables were. The coffee tables were the same as they were 50 years ago, uninteresting, impractical and they have no features that would make folks want to be around them. I guess that is how the process started. The next thing I know, I am drawing coffee tables that I would like and that would provide a conversation piece for our guests. I thought immediately about the storage of wine (imagine that:-) . If you put wine into it, why not have it so that people can see your favorite bottles, so I put a glass top on it. I designed it to be strong and practical. Strong because unlike any other coffee table, people actually are going to use it for something else other than a place to put the remote control. Practical because it has a drawer to hold all those wine accessories that are stored throughout the kitchen not to mention the 38 bottles it can store. I think it is a quality piece that will entertain and be useful for many years.
