Ok, I cannot find an other one like that desk but it looks like something made by Mastercraft. Here are the two examples that I could find to illustrate, but sadly no similar tables http://www.1stdibs.com/furniture_item_detail.php?id=671962

Also could it be a table, that someone has added a wooden top/box to? Just a thought.

What about selling it to a theater/movie/tv props company? There can't be that many pre-1950's autopsy tables around. Just think, the next time you see it could be in some random Dexter flashback...

Hi!
I remember seeing this on remodelista, so here are the links:
http://www.remodelista.com/posts/tse-tse-kitchen-drainer
however it doesn't seem to be listed on the Conran site any more. I think you will have to call them, maybe track down who they bought it from.

Best of luck.

Zaky,
Try the Flower District near w28th street (close to Korea town?). I checked a few stores along that walk when I was looking for a fiddler's fig and ended up at AK Kumar Tropical Plants and Orchids INC, 106 w 28th street btw 6th and 7th). Hope this helps.

I would go with a gold in the dinning room (farrow and ball does a marvelous one) and I recommend the Pewter Mug from Behr (but just go to a paint store and have them make it in another brand of paint).

I can't remember where I read this (I will find it) but it was purchased at a flea market in Paris. But it is owned by one of the designers of Ocher (see here: http://coolandsublime.wordpress.com/2007/12/16/ochre-interiors/ )

I just bought a bench from Modernica.net, and then had to return it (my fault, I ordered the wrong colour). No problems. Great customer service.

When I was going to school, I shared an apartment that apparently had a very risque past. It was a large three story building that had been divided (one side was now a single family home over a business) the other side a series of apartments.
The previous renters, told us a story that had been told to them by the people who passed the apartment to them (so this probably is a tall tale). Apparently an architecture student from my school had come to the door and asked to see the inside of the apartment. He said that according to city records the building had been a brothel (apparently they listed it as such on tax records?). There was nothing remotely sexy about the place, just odd. For example the ceiling were high (14feet) and the kitchen cupboards started at 7 feet (great planning there folks).

I knew I had read some where before about painting parquet floors, but couldn't find the link. Until I remembered they cooked a roast to hide the smell of the paint (why they would need to hide the fact that they painted if they intended to show it in a national magazine.... but I digress). Check out the slide show and good luck.

My vote is a bar cabinet, the smaller holes would hold bitters, and the low ball glasses. The bottom would be where you put the bottles of liqueur. Is the surface in the top a waterproof one? That would cinch it.

Just a thought... it looks remarkable similar and costs less then a car (well a new car, with four doors, maybe i should have said an SUV)...

I read somewhere that new york city has overturned the no garbage disposal rule, but only if you live in a building that has larger (I cannot for the life of me remember the diameter) pipes. A plumber should be able to tell you if your pipes are big enough.
