apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I would hope it can handle the weight of a person, because it looks like an inviting seat, and would certainly look that way to someone at a party...

Nice table. I want one!

Not sure if this is would be a problem on an NYC terrace, but in the suburbs, this would be a bug magnet at night.

I agree with SPHH.
It's nice, but...If you don't put lounge chairs next to it, it'll look like a welcoming stool.

From their web site:

Note 1: Eventually, after time UV rays can alter the color and pigmentation of the materials.
(Uh oh, I think I'd be upset if my $1800 cafe table turned yellow, like an old dot matrix printer)

Note 2: The Boletus has been designed as a lighting fixture and should not be considered as a seating option.
