In the late 1990s, Champion was actively purchasing various designs from Pesce at his Crosby St. Studio. After buying several sets of stock Triple Play nesting tables with a circular top, the studio asked if he would like anything special for his next order. Champion said yes, and that Pesce should do whatever he wants. The result was the present design featuring table tops shaped as faces in profile, marking the beginning of a new variation in the series.
Stamped manufacturer's mark to underside of each example ‘Fish Design 54’.
