Maybe not in the greatest condition, it’s got some scuffs, some chips and scratches; it could use a refinishing to polish it to its full glory but its bones are good, it was crafted with love and care, and few other tables are quite like it. Somebody picks it up out of curiosity because it’s free—hey, why not—and doesn’t take up too much space. They take care of it the best they can but grow tired of always having to use a coaster. They cover it with a cloth and it gathers dust and cobwebs sitting in a corner. They would have been happy with a table from IKEA; they didn’t want this table at all—they just needed a table. The table yearns to be the centerpiece to a room. Somewhere, a collector is searching far and wide for a table just like this one.
