Dichroic Glass Tables

These Abstract Tables by 'kukka' Reflect Color and Light

— August 15, 2016 — Art & Design
The British design house 'kukka' created two dichroic glass tables in collaboration with 'Ceaserstone' and 'Prinz Optics GmbH.'

Called the 'Spectra Collection,' the two tables have both abstract and functional qualities. The ABC table has a unique, multifaceted shape that is made from dichroic glass and uses light to reflect colors onto its surroundings. The table itself is various shades of pink, yellow and blue and its light-refracting abilities reflects a hot pink onto the floor around it. It is available in both glass and quartz and comes in different colors. The 'O Table' is made only from glass and has a more standard coffee table shape but also reflects a soft light onto its surroundings.

These abstract tables use light and color to cast beautiful shapes and hues onto their environments, making them excellent decor pieces for the home.
