This table takes its name from the cast aluminium legs that look like the rear legs of an antelope. The third leg is made of turned sycamore and together the legs make a contemporary version of a traditional tripod. The designer was Matthew Hilton, who produced many such zoomorphic designs in the late 1980s. He originally designed this table for a private client who had seen some of his cast aluminium candlesticks and wanted a piece of furniture with the same character.

SCP Ltd, a London-based manufacturer of progressive furniture design, made this example. The lustrous dark-stained top is in fact made of MDF, a cheap and readily available material. However, combined with the sparkling metal legs and the polished stainless steel insert, the inexpensive top makes the table look very luxurious.
