From How To Paint a Tree Mural and How To Make a Tree Branch Curtain Rod to the Branch Shelf from WOK Media, the organic shapes and structure of branches and trees is a growing trend. Here are three very different products that embrace this look...
Corallo Rattan Coatrack from Gervasoni Spa.
Branch Table by Maurizio Marconato and Terry Zappa. Available from Design Within Reach for $3,400.
Benjamen Hubert's Botanical Martini Glass for Bombay Saphire.

There is a cruel irony about the way that trees are deconstructed and then constructed again to take on the resemblance of a tree. Sort of like chickens and Chicken McNuggets.
I do love the tree shapes!
just when I thought martini glasses couldn't get any more precarious to handle...
Here is another great piece:

I just got this for my home as a solution to a tricky storage problem. I needed something tall and narrow to serve as a media center and it works perfectly. Couldn't be happier with my purchase!
My all-time favourite piece of furniture inspired by nature is this bed by Shawn Lovell Metalworks:

It is right out of a fairytale. The other pieces on the site are as whimsical.
