Bell Side Table
Sebastian Herkner inverts the expected hierarchy of materials. The base, hand-blown using a traditional wooden mold, is glass, transparent, tinted, and fragile in character. Yet it supports a solid brass or steel pedestal topped with a black lacquered crystal glass surface that appears to float above it.
The form recalls the curved silhouette of a bell, giving the piece a sculptural presence that reads differently from every angle. Herkner's decision to place the delicate beneath the solid is not a provocation but a quiet reordering, one that rewards close attention and close proximity.
- Hand-blown glass base formed with a traditional wooden mold
- Available with solid brass or steel pedestal
- Black lacquered crystal glass top
- Each piece is handmade; minor variations are inherent to the process
Herkner, based in Frankfurt, is known for work that draws on global craft traditions while remaining firmly rooted in a contemporary European sensibility. The Bell Side Table has become one of Classicon's most recognizable objects, a piece where material contrast and formal restraint are held in careful balance.
