If you have been wanting to bring home a space telephone table then you might just get lucky. Well, if your curiosity has been driving you crazy then here is just a chunk of information for you about Kartell Space Age Colombo Telephone Table which is left unfinished by Andrew.
He has showcased his talent by fitting the base of a Colombo phone into the lid of a Kartell modular unit thereby enabling the lip on the phone’s base to recess. To give a virtually perfect look to this space age telephone table, Andrew has also added the classic Guzzini Sorella lamp produced in 1972.
If you want to call this antique your own then all you have to do is to continue the challenge left by Andrew by shelling out some dough from your pockets and by laying your creative hands on the unfinished product. If you are as fascinated as Andrew about this piece then go explore your creativity. Nevertheless, it doesn’t quite make any sense to me to waste the precious time and money to own this table. I would rather cling on to my cellphone.

Greetings Andrew,
What are the price details for this unique assembly?
Also, would you be willing to separate the lamp from the sale?
Look forward to hearing back.

hey…Im “andrew” i made this !! ..this was originally featured on the UK “retro to go” website last year. i made this tabel when the colombo phone was released.
Basically is just a “kartell” componabilli bed side / storage table ( still avaliable ) with as it says… the lid piece cut out for the phone base, new lids are only £10 so not much to replace. the colombo phones are still pretty easy to get hold of too….However the Guzzini Sorella light will be very hard if not impossible to source these days. you can email me aandrew@hotmail.co.uk if you like…glad you liked it.
