Wood Vienna Etagere

Seven feet of thin lines, resting on one very serious box.

This Vienna Etagere by Randal Tysinger joins a Macassar ebony base with a stainless steel frame and glass shelves. Homeowners use an etagere to show off books and objects rather than hide them, so very little of this one gets in the way. The steel is narrow and bright, stepping inward in small angular patterns between the shelves. Below, the ebony's dark stripes run across two deep drawers, and a clear pull bridges the pair. Eighty-four inches high, 42 long and 18 deep.

Empty, it is already a fairly good argument for restraint.
