Custom Tables

From front foyer tables that catch the keys as you enter to dining room tables that display the finest centerpiece, the table is your chance to combine function with form. Without the table, everything would be all over the floor.

Made in Ash with a natural finish, the Purple Heart trim on the side board and dining room table resulted in a distinct and unique color scheme for this dining room. The table has elliptical ends and tapered legs to soften the straight lines.

Generally, side boards are narrow to allow mobility in the dining room but this side board has a full-extension pullout tray to double the surface area.  Down below behind doors are adjustable shelves for the fine china. 

While the standard height of a dining room table is 30 inches, this breakfast nook table is 36 inches high to fit the bar stool chairs.  The butcher block look done in Alder with a natural finish has a ten-tile inset to accommodate hot pots. 

A custom built home on the east mountains had a unique built in banco for a breakfast nook and the customer wanted a table to fit the curvature.  The result? A round pedestal table done in Oak with a single stem pedestal.

Custom Coffee/End Tables

 

The use of expensive Walnut was offset in cost by the amount of glass in this showcase coffee table.  The dark Walnut wood framed the customer’s collection of Native American treasures.  Of interest, the display case has a lid for easy removal – no dusting but easy access.

In contrast, this coffee table measures 30 x 60 inches. The three glass panel tops allows viewing into the top row of drawers that showed off a magnificent collection of seashells from worldly shores.

The two lower drawers kept large aerial photography maps that couldn’t be folded.  The solid Oak table has recessed base so that folks can pull up and play board games. 

The blue glass top on this table echoes the faint blue wash, done on Oak, creates a cool, tranquilizing centerpiece to this Southwest living room. 

The “Zia” designed trim on the four sides of the underskirt (and even under the glass!) are duplicated on the side banco made to display the customer’s personal collection of art.

Done in the same southwest style, this end table was done in a beige wash to match the customer’s leather recliner.  Of note, I often use glass tops with coffee and end tables. The glass is always encased in wood to protect the edge of the glass from chipping. A glass top table in a high-traffic area is sensible, easy to wipe clean, and is fairly inexpensive. Available in many tints, glass can be used to complement the tone of the wood.

This set of stereo cabinet, end and coffee tables are in Alder with a natural finish.  The tables are different in dimension but carry common themes, notably slats and a double reveal.
Coming down from the table tops is a double layer of trim, one smaller than the other creating a recessed frame – hence your double reveal.
The mission-style slat design is repeated in the end table and stereo stand.  Of note, the customer liked the open slat design to prevent heat build-up with his stereo equipment.

 

Custom Table with Butterfly Leaf

 

 

The designs for this table was brought to me by an engineer, he beat me to the draw by bringing his own multitude of drawings! 

If you Listen, Wood Will Talk

 to you- it Talks to me.  One

Customer Called me the

Dr. Dolittle of

Wood Working.

The concept of the table is to house the extension leaves in the belly of table. From a 3 x 3 foot card table to a 3 x 5 foot dining table, the consistency of Maple is what allows for this many moving parts to keep their accuracy 

 

The leaf folds up, then folds out, ends are pushed together, and pins align for a flush top.

This extravagant piece of art is housed in a customized travel coach, moving from Tampa to Topeka – can you tell I’m proud?
