Another "Prototype"
I still kind of want it though...
I'm definitely curious where such things come from...
Who knows? Could this possibly be "real"?

Noguchi coffee table featuring a handy magazine rack.
Someone had too many Hustler magazines laying about so this was a weekend project to remedy the mess and keep the wife happy.

The indignity of hijacking a good name for dubious purposes.

moreibiza, no it is not legal
but they get away with it--at least for awhile---because prosecuting is a big, long, tedious, expensive process. At least that's what I've always heard.

and lets not forget...
that in this particular case, the piece in question is so UN-close to a Noguchi that it is laughable, and if Herman Miller WERE to sue, they would lose.
This thing is so hilariously and obviously wrong and bad, and is in no danger of copyright infringement.
Sure, it's a wood base with a glass top, but that is about all it shares with a Noguchi table.
Some dealers have no professional pride.

I, too, worry that the Modernica color campaign jumped the calico shark with that latest offering.
Chorizo Red, Boudin Noir, and Casu Marzu should be here by Fall.
