I thought I found a good deal on a Noguchi table today. I was so excited! Then when I got to the guy’s house it turned out to be a fake. Just a reminder to all to always know how to prove authenticity and NEVER buy a fake anything (even purses). It is a slap in the face to the original creative talent… One of my pet peeves.

Noguchi tables have a signature in two places. One along the long side of the side of the glass, and a pair of initials on a medallion on the lower wooden base.
