Converse = to engage in conversation. Indeed, the late, great Faas van Dijk thoroughly enjoyed sitting around a table, talking for hours, preferably with a glass of wine and some good food. No wonder that this design by Faas is called ‘Converse’. Because it invites you to do just that. And even when there is nobody sitting around it, ‘Converse’ is a ‘conversation piece’—its asymmetrical top and glorious, tapering base are exquisite.
