I totally love this table and can't really explain why - it's so personal - in my private studio, you know, where I keep all my creative and spiritual loves.  I have it in a corner under a window and love 'standing' over it to organize my day, research quandaries, and ground myself - never sitting!   I went a bit beyond and placed Wayfair's Fernagh Laced Victorian Table Lamp to the rear of this table.  Don't let the hex wrench discourage you - it's worth the effort!
