I'm looking to buy this table. I figured someone in this stylish crowd might have one for sale, or know of a source. Please contact me if you do. (And please excuse the crosspost on the B&S section.)

Thanks. The Buy It Now price on that listing is actually more than the table costs NEW :-) so I was hoping to find other sources.

I freakin' love that table. Reminiscent, but a lot less (granted not nearly as nice), is the following table from Bobby Berk: http://www.bobbyberkhome.com/product...ich-table.html

Yes, that's interesting, but not quite the same. Much more affordable though

Why don't you have a very similar one custom made? The concept looks relatively simple.

That's an interesting idea. I'll look into it...

A local retailer (Italianinteriors) recently had that table on sale for $1700 CDN. I know Palazetti retails it (don't know for how much). I think the high prices at auction are for original production (not to be confused with the 1939 original)...not a re-issue. I love that table as well...in fact, the whole surrealist Ultramobile collection they did...let one of those Man Ray Le Temoin eyeball/seats slip away at Machine Age a while back...regretted it. But...all these re-issues of classics is a tiny bit bothersome....much prefer the original production units from a collector standpoint.
