Sculptural Dining Table Base
mappa burl veneer, wenge
29" deep x 29" wide x 29" high base
(designed for a 1/2" starfire glass top,
48"66" diameter)
The table base is composed of tapering
half-round panels, opposing each other
with sculpted top, bottom, and ends.
The core of the panels is 1/8-inch
Baltic birch plywood, veneered on the
sides with mappa burl and with wenge
on the edges. The base is made in
cubical dimensions so it can be positioned
in three different orientations:
three tables in one! The glass top can
be one of several diameters to accommodate
the number of diners: a 4-foot
diameter tabletop could seat four, a
5-foot top could seat six, and a 5-foot
6-inch top could seat eight.
"This table base is the most challenging piece I've done.
It looks simple, but was extremely difficult to do!"
