Modern Drum Cocktail Table

Two circles and some heavy blocks. Geometry seldom looks this well dressed.

The Modern Drum Cocktail Table is by Ralph Lauren, in ribbon mahogany with a Chairman mahogany finish. Ribbon mahogany takes its name from the striped figure in the grain, which shows here as faint bands under a deep, even gloss. Cocktail tables sit in front of a sofa to hold drinks and books, and the lower shelf here gives extra room for both. A thick round top rests on solid rectangular supports above a matching round lower shelf, with small feet beneath. The finish is very dark, close to coffee. At 54 inches in diameter, it stands 18 high.

It will hold a lot of books you have not read.
