Joe in Chicago sent in a good question based on a photo from this post about a French architects loft. He says, "Because our small bedrooms necessitate using our actual dining room as a workspace, my roommate and I force double duty on the kitchen- it's for cooking and eating. The problem is my kitchen is long and narrow, and so I've been on the hunt for a small-ish round pedestal table. It seems "outdoor" tables are the way to go, and I've been considering the Pix Cafe Table from DWR, but I like this guy's table so much better....

Got any good ideas?? Thanks!"

they literally have a new bistro set that comes with a table at Ikea that looks just like that for $69.99 for the set.

the table is the same one i used to own in london, sold at habitat stores there. i recognize it by its offset legs which fold up flat, making it a great outdoor table as well as cafe table. maybe you could look up habitat, or conran to see if there is a US supplier/stockist.
best, M

The Company store sells a bistro set. One table, two chairs, $199. Four color choices.
It's called "French Bistro Tables and Chairs"

Jamel, I second Mirrielee: looks like the bistro table from Habitat (ROSSO). You'll find it here: http://www.habitat.fr/fcp/categorylist/browse/outdoor/tables/
They have it in orange, turquoise and other "happy" colors.
I have not seen it at The Conran Shop though.

Joe here-
Thanks for suggestions and pointing me in the direction of Habitat... anyone know if they'll ship to the US?
Thanks again!

Joe, I think this table is made by Fermob- a French company that makes amazing metal, outdoors pieces. This is likely their #6030 Tertio. Check out www.fermobusa.com for a dealer in your town or one that would ship to you.
On that website, you can see a picture of the table (24x29) under "Products: Occasional Pieces".
I love the table in the picture and I think this may be it. I'm thinking about purchasing one too.
