Rather than his signature hand-glazed ceramic tiles, the tops feature individually hand-worked brass\/copper plates inset into solid Blackwood timber tops — each plate uniquely textured and composed, making this a genuinely sculptural commission.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe three tables are designed to be used together or independently. Tops and brass plates are in excellent condition and retain their original patina. The brass-finished metal frames show surface corrosion and wear consistent with their age — buyers seeking pristine condition should note this.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHavekes’ work is highly collectable and he is an increasingly sought-after artist whose work continues to appreciate.
