Can you identify this winged acrylic table?

Purchased in 1987, this unlabeled postmodern dining / entry table has a frosted base that gives rise to two clear wings supporting a beveled glass top. I hope you can help solve the mystery of this elegant stunner. Thanks!

Can you tell me about care of Angel Wing begonias?
Comments (24)They really are tough plants (for the most part) and repotting isn't difficult tho' I know it's scary the first time or two. First be sure you have some good free-draining potting mix. Then knock it out of the pot--turn it upside down and hold the plant with one hand while you rap the rim of the pot against the table or wherever you're going to be working. Usually just a good rap or two will knock it loose, but it tends to be pretty messy so I hope you have a nice place outside to do it. Sometimes it takes a little more work to get it out, but don't worry about hurting it. Might even be necessary to run a long thin-bladed knife around the inside of the pot. Cut back any weak or damaged growth. Work the root-ball so you get as much of the old soil off as comes easily, and check to be sure the roots are healthy. You can prune them back, especially if they've circled around the inside of the pot a few times. Be sure you put a little something in the bottom of the pot to be sure all the potting mix doesn't wash out while the roots are getting re-established--I use various things such as scraps of coir from old basket liners, or a wad of long-fibered sphagnum moss; you can also use the liners from meat trays, and I have a friend who swears by used dryer sheets. But don't put a layer of rocks or broken pots or whatever might be suggested for 'drainage'--it actually stops drainage. Put a little potting mix in the bottom of the pot, put your root-ball on it, fill around it and rap it on the bench a few times to settle the soil in well and prevent pockets of air. Don't put very much soil over it, but a little is probably a good idea. Water it in well, and set in the shade to drain. Does that cover what you need to know? And sorry to the original poster who gets to read all this! In the future it's probably a good idea to start a new thread....See MoreCan you identify this small worm on tomato plant?
Comments (5)There are many different moths whose larva will roll leaves up, for protection, while they eat the leaf and grow to adulthood. The simplest control for these is to simply squish them in the leaf. There are also moths that lay eggs that become the larva that are known as the Tomato Fruitworm and is the same as the European Corn Earworm that get inside your tomato fruit. The only control there is to find the eggs they will hatch from and destroy them....See MoreCan you identify this table?
Comments (8)Still having difficulty telling what I am looking at. You showed a picture of a label and there was some sort of a metal rod across it?? Can't tell what the white is...but it looks like a Victorian parlor table...what does the top look like? Sometimes theyw ere marble? It has a lot of the aspects of Eastlake influence, I would date it about 1890....no idea what kind of wood with out a closer look, but Eastlake was sometimes maple, sometimes oak and sometimes walnut. Was there white paint on it at some time? What is that white I am seeing? Linda C...See MoreCan you identify this dining table and chairs?
Comments (3)That style was also much made in maple, and I think back as far as the 40s or so. But this does look like pine. The table is pretty cool, but I don't like that style of chair at all; I think they are horrendously uncomfortable, and they take up an inordinate amount of space. Karin L...See More- PRO
