Indisputable Divorce Table (2003)

1 in 3 marriages in the UK will end in divorce. Boots the high street chemist sell an off the shelf do-it-yourself divorce kit, while online it is possible to buy balloons and decorations for your divorce party celebrations. The subject of divorce, once an indignity and social taboo, is now unremarkable and an accepted part of society.

The Indisputable Divorce Table facilitates one of the most difficult matters of a marriage breakdown; the division of maritial possessions. With it's unusual 8 legs and a solid oak top, the table might be given as a wedding gift or purchased by a young couple furnishing their home for the first time. It is also desirable for married couples beginning a 'fresh start' or renewing their vows.

If the marriage breaks down there is a notch in the top to begin sawing the table in half. While the table remains together it represents the solidarity of the relationship.
