Thanks for your inquiry. I believe the table you are interested in is the white Fritz Hansen Attitude Coffee Table in the photograph. Unfortunately, it sold over the weekend during our Memorial Day Weekend Sale. DWR does not stock this table. We receive many items for many different reasons here at the outlet. Please feel free to reach out if there is anything you see in our catalog or on our website, as there is a chance we may have it here or may have it in the near future. -DWR
