Even though the Crochet Table should be used as a piece of furniture, I can't help but look at it as a piece of art. Beautifully ethereal, this table appears as though it could only be enjoyed by a fairy family. Considering that the Crochet Table looks so fragile, it would definitely make a great piece of decor for any home.
Designed by Marcel Wanders for furniture manufacturer Moooi, the Crochet Table is nevertheless resilient enough to be used if people chose to do so. Wanders expertly weaved cotton to create this piece's enchanting aesthetic, stiffening it with resin to maintain its shape and sturdiness. It appears to match a similar seat that he had designed back in 2006.
