The table in closed position (7'x 48"). The top is 1" with quarter-sawn figured ribbon african mahogany veneer on top and the underside - with a 2" solid peruvian walnut border which has a 1.5" crotch mahogany inlay, leaving a 1/4" reveal of the walnut on either side. The leaf (seen in the background) is 36". Heavy and not for the feint of heart - but the client preferred it over the multiple seams of 12" or 18" leaves... All critique and comments welcome!
The base profile. The legs are peruvian walnut, constructed by bent lamination.
