The A La Card table from ModCloth is a fun home accessory fit for poker players, gamblers and card game enthusiasts with a flair for unique decor.

This compact furniture piece is collapsible and is made up of five card elements. The pieces boast a bright red design and make up a form with triangular legs and a sturdy table top.

When constructed, the A La Card table resembles a traditional house of card base and can be mistaken for an over-sized kids' toy. The decorative side table is a guaranteed conversation piece and is fully stackable. When displayed alone, the table acts as a vivid accent and transforms into a storage unit when stacked in multiples.
