Circling Bead Table
This bright blue iron table is typical of the
outdoor furniture created at Stone County Art in that it combines a wide variety of
unexpected tessera from a variety of sources. The table itself was hand picked for the artist
by a friend who is an antique dealer. The beads were brought to Lee by friends who had salvaged them
from a curtain their grandchildren had broken, knowing "Lee will know what to do with these".
The swirling tiles themselves are Italian ones the artist picked up while in Australia.
It stands 28 inches tall, and the top has a 24 inch diameter.

Moose Table
This fabulous table also represents the unique, signature-style mosaic work of Stone County Art. While Lee designs this furniture to withstand the elements
in the out of doors, she has discovered that collectors often take these striking pieces of
functional art into their homes to serve as centerpieces. Moose Table stands 19 inches tall with
a 24 inche square top.
