Sunny Saturday in Vysocany.

An old industrial park at the edge of Prague, more than 12 acres of used and vintage stuff including some real treasures.

It's here that the antiques dealers of Western Europe come to replenish their stock.

My eye lights on this oddly alert metal table, although Václav has put a small pillow on it and is using it for a stool. I relieve him of his seat.

You might think of other uses. A plant stand, a night table, a butler in the bathroom; looks great with a champagne bucket on it.

Prague Side Table (No. 3143), a somewhat Dada objet trouvé from Karel Capek's 1920s, made of steel with an artfully rusted finish; seal for outdoor use.

Dimensions: 26-1/2” high x 11” diam. Shipping: $17.
