But just because it's a Witco, it's not necessarily a must-have. I deem 97% of all TIKI Witco collectable, and most of all of the modernist Witco is cool. But you don't see these tables in Tiki Modern because not EVERY piece of hacked wood they made is worthy to be in a book, or fits into a Tiki environment. This said, these tables will fit much better into your home bar than let's say a glass table with chrome legs. They have a generic "primitive", dark wood look and texture, and with a couple of Tiki or 50s ashtrays and a copy of Tiki Magazine and Tiki Modern on them, they'll do just fine - for that price especially! WOW!
