Clearly Gorgeous: Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams' Claro Collection

Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams recently introduced their spring collection for 2013 and everyone is buzzing about it. We love the new "Claro" collection which consists of three stunning bent glass table options: the cocktail table, the nesting tables and an elegant side table. 

"Simplicity is striking in these beautifully curved tables in bent glass with a beveled edge. A classic modern designer look with a light visual footprint." - mgbwhome.com

Shop the Claro collection and the entire MG+BW line at Weisshouse. We are offering 25% off upholstery and 20% case goods (Claro included), lighting and accessories now until May 4th.
