Axel Vervoordt

I have recently been taken with the design work of Axel Vervoordt. His particular brand of elegance coupled with rusticity fits well with my idea of how to live in the country. This arrangement on my coffee table was my effort to create some of that urban-rustic style. The table itself belonged to my parents, and was made by Drexel in 1959. I used some of my collection of celadon pottery together with boxes, shards, and other bits I found around the house.
