Discus Cocktail Table

The Discus Cocktail Table from Baker Furniture's Thomas Pheasant collection rests with the quiet authority of a sculptural object, its bronze base finished in a deep obsidian tonal palette that absorbs light rather than reflects it. There is something elemental in the composition — a considered tension between mass and precision that speaks to Pheasant's abiding interest in the dialogue between Eastern restraint and Western classicism. The blackened bronze finish grounds the piece with a mineral gravity, lending it that rare quality of appearing both ancient and entirely of the present moment.
