Nested Tables

“Diagonal Interplay”

We designed the group of nested tables to be a functional groups of tables which could be used in multiple rooms and room settings. The decoration of the tables was inspired by the Abstract Expressionism and Abstract Illusionism art movements of the 20th century. The use of “old stock” wood, Plyboo, moderately low VOC coatings and adhesives and our electrical power is generated via photo voltaic cells is considered to follow LEED Platinum Certifications and to be in keeping with Green Practices, and Best Practices.

Construction:

Hand cut lapped dovetails for the rear stretcher and finger joints for the stiles and rails of the three table frames. All the joints were secured with fish glue. The custom cut 1/8th” veneer was cut from “old stock” fragments and small boards, which we have collected for over 30 years.

Materials:

American black walnut, mottled, aromatic red cedar, bloodwood, Bubinga mottled, maple hard tiger; Makore mottled, purpleheart, rosewood Brazilian, and Vermilion solid wood and custom cut 1/8” veneers and a ¾” Plyboo substrate.
