Where does one find balls this big? Marine salvage, that’s where. This rolling, butcher-block kitchen table was made from a steel buoy by sculptural artist Peter Reiquam, whose home was featured in the Seattle Times over the weekend.
Look!: Salvaged Marine Buoy Kitchen Table
The table was originally part of Peter’s one-man show of sculptural furniture exhibited at Anderson-Glover art gallery in Kirkland. We can appreciate the piece’s oversized aesthetic — reminiscent of a wheelbarrow — but we’re glad it resides in the home of empty-nesters; this would be wicked rolling over the foot of a youngster.

How much do you guys think that weighs?

Must weigh at least 150 lbs. Balanced correctly it'll roll effortlessly but it'll still be hell on your floor.

I love that thing! It reminds me of the logo thing for the 1939 World's Fair:

Very modern, and yet very rustic.
