Letter-Shaped Side Tables From Andrew Martin London

Letter-Shaped Side Tables From Andrew Martin
London

Just when you thought you were sick of decorative letters come these chunky, three-dimensional aluminum letter-shaped side tables from Andrew Martin...

Flat as seen here, they make cheeky side tables. Or you can stand them up and use them to spell out initials or words.

See the rest of the alphabet here.

On a similar note, check out these three-dimensional, useable object-letters by designer Andrew Byrom:

i must have missed the part where decorative letters became passé. why must design be limited to fads, instead of things we like and might want to keep around for a while?

dru,
i am with you. but there are many people around here who have already declared the decorative letter passé, so i was just trying to acknowledge that demographic. thanks for bringing up a good point.

I love these, and am glad to see others do too as I'd also seen posts about them being passé (not that that'd stop me, but it did bum me out a bit).

Oh. My two favorite things, letters and side tables, all wrapped in one glorious product.

Also, I can't find the alphabet at that link. It's not under "side tables." Any idea how much these things run?

Group a few as a coffee table and spell out naughty words...LOL.

These were just featured in O at home. Surely Oprah has a set spelling out her name in all of her homes.

So, yes, if Oprah is featuring them (amid a whole spread dedicated to brand-spanking new letter-inspired home decor), they CAN'T POSSIBLY be passé!

Kravet sells them here in the States as well.

Would love to see two "Z"'s flanking a bed as nightstands!
