English Arts And Crafts Table
This table is in the style of Sydney Barnsley, an early 20th c English Arts and Crafts furniture maker. This version is quite low for use as a computer desk, but the shape is flexible. It could be used in a kitchen or dining room or as a library table. It is quite heavy and extremely rigid . The top is intensely flaky quartersawn white oak.
The hand-carved diamond pattern around the table and on the legs was a favourite of Barnsley's, and it gives the whole table a slightly exotic look. The carving took about 12 hours.
