The Lock Table is at once minimalist and intricate. The star-like silhouette is tastefully simple while the interlocking elements add a level of detail that transforms the piece of furniture into something worth noting rather than something the eyes will slide over in disinterest. Although each leg of the Lock Table looks to be carved, they are actually fashioned out of bent layers of bamboo veneer, which gives each of them that lined look.
Designed by Dutch designer J.P. Meulendijks, the Lock Table has a subtle sculptural element that will add a touch of art to any living space. Meulendijks says, "I like to describe my work as fresh, soulfull, minimal, with a slice of humor, designed by my own way of thinking, brought back to the essence of the idea."
