Great minds think alike...
... or how else would you explain these?
Both are tables designed to look like wooden toys (see the difference between Mexican toys and Norwegian toys).
The first one is the Mesa Pirueta by Paulina Gonzalez Ortega (whom I met at CSM) and Andres Ocejo.

Bleu Nature
You all know about my problem with wooden stools.
I think Bleu Nature just does this on purpose. This is provokation. This, this... is just too lovely. Add them to my wooden stool wish-list. Sigh. 
They also do this fascinating dishes...

First step, recognize the problem
The first step in overcoming an addiciton is recognizing the problem. Well, then. i am addicted. Badly. I covet every single hand-crafted wooden stool out there. Specially the ones in Elle decor SA. I need to go back to SA and accumulate. (ok, maybe the cure of my addiciton will take a while).
Found via Desire to Inspire.

Claudette Schreuders
When I was in Swaziland, my Art teacher, Ms P., took us around art trips in South Africa. These were absolutely extraordinary. She knew everybody, we went from gallery to museum to studio. One of the artists she showed us was Claudette Schreuders. I loved her work, sweet and cruel at the same time. Naive and sad. But I have only realized now how much it struck me. I find myself thinking of her pieces at random moments. Isn´t it weird, the things you remember, and when you remember them?
Let me share her with you.

Alma Allen
You might have noticed I'm loving raw wood (see old post here). Imagine then my will to know where the "trumpet" stool on the cover of Elle Decor came from (below, with white seat)! And, just picture my rejoice-ment when I read about Alma Allen in Hoping for happy accidents. 
She sculpts wobbly, organic forms out of most materials, but boy, do I droole over her stools! (not literally, I wish I had one of her stools to wet with saliva, but unfortunately I don't). I think my favourite is the top one...
