The $42,000 Coffee Table of My Dreams

Sep 12 Posted by nancyjrab 12 Comments

I’ve been looking for a new coffee table.  Trolling Houzz and Design Sponge.  And I finally found one I love.

Council Design

Table by Council Design

Sort of a bummer that it’s $42,000.  And no, I didn’t add a zero by mistake.

Ah well.  Back to the drawing board.

    If you wait long enough, maybe Design (Still Not) Within Reach will do a knock off?

      Yes, but when that happens, it will mean it’s no longer unique enough for me. Affordable + my taste = non-existence.

      Business. Or bankruptcy.

    Is it actually made of 42,000 $1 notes glued together?

    This coffee table looks relatively simple. It’s made of several large pieces of hardwood that has been treated with a silver finish. But the San Francisco manufacturer of luxury furniture, Council Design, has really gone far beyond simple. In fact, the technique that makes this simple silver coffee table is a proprietary and painstakingly difficult process that makes this table worth all of the $42,000 you would pay to own one.

      Oh, I don’t doubt that it’s spectacular. Just that I’ll ever be able to afford it.

    You can’t put your feet under it — or stack magazines — or — a wet glass — or

    Just pick your favorite twin, and that one gets to go to college. The other one gets to live at home and put his/her feet up on the new coffee table.
