We made this table using Bird’s Eye Maple veneer with Rosewood feet and detailing to complement our client’s Art Deco period house.
This semi-circular table has a single drawer, which has a curved front and handcut dovetails. Bird’s Eye Maple is a very hard wood with a very decorative grain structure created by the birdseyes.
Bird’s Eye Maple features in another of our table designs here. Have a close look at our MWL desk – it’s asymmetric design allows more space for a personal computer.
We are opening our studio to visitors – come and see David demonstrating his traditional craftmanship skills at our workshop on 20 and 21 June, and on 26, 27, 28 June. We will be open from 10.30 am till 5.30 pm on these days. We will have examples of our individually designed furniture on display – please come and try them out – you can touch the wood, sit on the wood, buy the wood – we will have gift items available for you to purchase on the day; for example jewellery boxes, clocks with unique grain patterns, chopping boards, cheese boards and larger items of furniture. We are taking part in the North Yorkshire Open Studios event, you can see other inspirational artists and craftsmen here

David carved the work of calligrapher Richard Crookes into the top of this console table. Inlaid cherry represents the ‘twig’ and Stephanie’s stitched hemp cord represents the ‘twine’.
