I love this pub table. Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship. Nautical details.Howard Kaplan's favorite activity in England, France, or anywhere in Europe is sitting in a pub and having a drink. His inspirational "Pub collection" will give you the same pleasure. The best bar in Paris is at the Ritz Hotel, where the rich and famous gather. The quality of craftsmanship of this collection is only rivaled by the quality of the drinks at the Ritz.
These Pub stools are typical of old- world bars in Europe.
Finishes Available: Polished Brass, Satin Brass, Antiqued Brass, Polished Nickel, Satin Nickel, Antiqued Nickel, Oiled Bronze, Copper, Chrome.
Quaker Base TableThomas W. Neuman Tables.
Howard Kaplan says "Thomas and I have worked together for 30 years creating this line of custom tables. Tom likes to say he is creating "heirlooms of the future." Each table is created from a single tree chosen and cut by Tom. These unique pieces express the love of wood I have experienced throughout my career as an antique dealer, decorator and designer."
