The work of David Hicks, designer to the British royal family and to the cultural elite, is both bold and influential. Harmoniously blending the traditional with the avant-garde and ingeniously using color, pattern and material, Hick’s designs are contemporary inspirations rooted in the Victorian spirit. This coffee table, designed in two versions, square and the less common rectangular, were available only via galleries in Rome and Paris.
