The table itself is made from solid walnut wood whilst the frog is partly coated in blue transparent enamel. It’s currently being shown at the Galerie Kreo in Paris until the 30th May 2009.

Hella Jongerius has become a name in the design field for the way she merges and pushes  the boundaries of handicraft and industrial techniques. Through her explorations, a narrative  often evolves into her work; stories seem to hide underneath the skin of products.
