I think the table........
Thank you for the replies, and actually ZZ top mentions the legs in a popular song of theirs.
However i think the table is from the 1940's by a defunct European producer, the storage co. is probably not associated. I'm in California but was hoping a continental friend could weigh in with some info.
Its a kind of Eames meets Aalto in a bar table.........
I'm shocked the pix worked.
