leah’s ebay finds: nicos zographos marble-topped table

Could this be an affordable — but equally stylish — alternative to that marble-topped Eero Saarinen Tulip Table you’ve been eying at DWR? Designed in 1964 by Nicos Zographos (whose name may not be as familiar as Saarinen’s, but who has his own band of devoted, discerning followers who snap up his designs for Knoll and his own firm), the table features a 2.5-inch-thick, 4-foot diameter white marble surface atop chromed legs. Originally designed as a small conference table (the Houston-based seller has many items liquidated from the former Enron headquarters), it would look just as striking in a modern breakfast room or petite dining area. Current bid: $150. (Hurry — the auction ends Wednesday afternoon, July 30.) –Leah H.
