Where did this come from and why is it like this? Who's to say. Perhaps it was in a living room atop a bean stalk or in a very large, very open cabin or the central piece of an enormous patio sectional. Constructed from pretty lightweight pine boards with hairpin legs, this has a rustic look but does feel a little flimsy and could use some more support in the center if you're really going to load it up. However, if you just need a space to set a cup of coffee and your handful of living room necessities it'll do the trick.
