Oakland, California, late 20th century, cast glass, solid rectangular frosted base with two greenish columnar supports, brownish capitals, glass top, overall: 24 x 56 x 19-7/8 in.

Note: John's cast glass tables are inspired by his interest in solid forms that can be joined together in a sculptural way. His curiosity about how forms relate to each other led him to create pieces incorporating a number of cast glass elements in different variations. The result is a group of cast glass sculpted pedestals and tables combining both beauty and function.

Provenance: Holsten Galleries, Santa Fe; Private Collection, New York
