lazy susans, not a thing of the past ~ "functional art on your table" ~

Lazy Susans are a unique household item. The earliest record of one notes an eighteenth century Russian poet who reportedly had no butler and welcomed guests to his estate via signs that led them to a large, elaborate dining room. 

At the center lay a beautiful dining table with a massive rotating center piece that held food and wine that guests could help themselves, a taboo and unorthodox formality amongst the nobility at the time. 

And thus, the concept of a Lazy Susan took off. It was later revived in the 1960s and '70s, and once again is making a much needed come back as an essential household item that properly helps families enjoy the countless delicious dishes and warm conversation.     

Naples Art Factory (NAF) is the quintessential shop for such quality, one-of-a-kind Lazy Susans. Each one is hand-made and uniquely catered to intricacies, textures, and designs, making NAF a rare niche in the market.
