Glass Rivers And Lakes Flow Across Beautiful Tables By Furniture Maker Greg Klassen

Talented Washington-based artist and furniture-maker Greg Klassen’s beautiful river- and lake-like desks and tables straddle the line between furniture and art.

These organic forms lend natural power to the “rivers” and “lakes” on his tables, which are completed with custom-cut panes of glass and look much like features on a topographical map.

Klassen, who has a degree in theology, writes, “I try to marry the natural beauty of the wood with the skilled craftsmanship of the maker. When the two come together, a piece can really sing!

I saw a similar table with concrete insert instead of glass. And it looked ugly. Anyway, looking for pricing of the one by Ben Mann listed here - http://www.homecrux.com/15-unique-river-tables/71673/

Greg Klassen is great artist and I follow him for a while now. He has a lot of imitators but it's easy to find out what is original work!
