Tom Spina Designs created this super creepy 'Han Solo in Carbonite desk' for Mark Hall of the Grammy Award winning group Casting Crowns. It is a custom designed desk that fits a Star Wars-style theme. The makers claim the desk 'is beyond furniture... it's not just a desk, it's art!' It's damn creepy art if you ask me. Metal and fiberglass construction with a heavy glass top create an elegant and extremely unique piece of furniture!
