How Do You Take Your Coffee Table?

Distant Origins
Shopping at Nina Griscom’s boutiques in Southampton, New York, and Manhattan feels like being inside two very posh cabinets of curiosity. “The pieces here are from Africa,” Griscom says. “None really serves any practical purpose—it’s about eye candy.” Parchment table, $4,800; bailer shell, $1,500; Katanga cross, $800; ostrich egg-and-sterling candlesticks, $650 a pair; African necklace, $225; porcupine boxes, from $950. All Nina Griscom.
