I knew from the moment I saw the Saarinen table that I wanted one. It was so clean and modern and yet perfectly classic. Once I purchased my first home with my husband, I immediately told him what table we would be getting. He was not as thrilled as I had expected him to be when I showed it to him. Sadly, I could not afford the one I desired with the gorgeous Calcutta marble on top. However, I did manage to find a lovely look-a-like that I think works for both of us. The Ikea knock-off had the look I wanted and the price that my husband could swallow. One day though I will get that beautiful table, but for now, pictures will do!

It looks so elegant in this very traditional room.



I still want this poster.
