There's many things we'd like to embrace. Loved ones. Children (our own, of course). Maybe even the car if we escape a narrow scrape due to the power of four wheel driving. But we'd never thought about embracing a table. Until now. 

Created by designer John Green, it was originally created back when he was a doe-eyed student (don't quote us on the doe-eyed thing, we're paraphrasing). An award winning piece of furniture, it's a two piece item that's meant to slide together, 'embracing' each other in perfect harmony.

The 21st century version of 'Ebony and ivory', if that song was re-imagined as a great table instead of a low point in the careers of two musical legends. £285, Slowdownjoe
