In addition to the pillows, Vizard designed every detail of this space and selected colors to evoke the bubbles of a warm, soothing bath.

\nTOM BURR TABLE-TENNIS TABLE<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nNoted artist Tom Burr brings his modern aesthetic to your home in the form of a beautifully rendered table-tennis table, which also doubles as a contemporary work of art.

This limited-edition table, perfectly sculpted from a distinctive choice in material\u2014black rubber\u2014turns ordinary sporting equipment into the sublime. As Burr notes, \u201cI like the notion of rubber. It has low-key glamour, like that of a sports car\u2019s bumpers and guards. And, quite simply, rubber makes the balls bounce\u2014more bounce for your buck.\u201d For each table sold, Neiman Marcus will donate $2,500 to Big Brothers Big Sisters, the nation\u2019s mentoring leader in changing children\u2019s lives for the better, forever.
