Gazelle Three Legs Side Table
Domesticating the wild spirit of a dangerously fast Gazelle so you could infuse her energy into your favorite rooms is the design intent of this piece, which is definitely one of our favorites.
In spite of its recent design, the Gazelle’s animal roots imprint the piece with their ancient legacy.
You can order the Gazelle:
1. with silver-gilded rings on the legs. This approach gives the piece ethnicity or
2. in its more unadorned rendition where the rings have subdued animal stripes.
Construction Notes:
We designed the legs to imitate the legs of the gazelle and our original artist proof was literally so.
But unless it is a commissioned piece, repeatability is an important design criteria.
So we sufficiently reduced the muscle mass of the Gazelle thighs so the legs could be turned in a lathe while keeping the hand carved hoofs.
The piece still requires considerable hand carving to make the interior hollow of the legs and sculpt its rounded skirt. The top is secured to the legs with dowels and then carved to give the table a continuous surface.
Dimensions:
18" top diameter x 25" height

Chateau Dinner Table
This is obviously a french country inspiration piece. We refined the legs in terms of carving since french country furniture is basically rustic. But its lines are rounded which makes this style familiar and pleasant and turns an ambiance into the feeling of home. Respecting the french style we did not tint the wood but kept it natural.Product details...
Crazy Horse Coffee Table
We designed this piece for comfortable, easy living. A coffee table to rest your feet, serve as food tray, sit, put your reading materials and the TV/CD/VCR/remote controls. Rugged enough to survive food debris, liquid spills, dirty shoes, normal living wear and tear plus the unexpected. That goal required upholstering with distressed leather which looks âold moneyâ when new and grows richer with use and abuse. Then we worked the conceptual size, height and proportions: wide enough to sit or eat comfortably, long enough to be in front irrespective of where one sat in the sofa. We wanted it more warm than slick modern so we gave it rounded mahogany legs, brass tacked the upholstery to the also mahogany base and finished the table in a rich roasted-coffee color for contrast with itâs naturally distressed leather hue. Dimensions: 17"h x 24"w x 55"lProduct details...
Drum Side Table

Its structural design, although visually minimalist guarantees a long life. Dimensions: 20 ½" Diameter x 24"HProduct details...

Four Cubes Center Table
Being a Libra I like everything in perfect balance. The idea of having four perfect proportioned "cubes" which assemble together in a perfect square fills my fancy. Each of the cubes may, of course, be used separately as a seat, or a small table. Construction Notes Each cube is made from five solid mahogany panels with 45 degree invisible joints. The metal band around each of the cubes has a hand painted, rust finished, Moorish motif. Dimensions: 30 1/4 âL. x 30 1/4" x 17" H. (assembled ) 15"L.

Gothic Side Table
The thrust of Gothic philosophy has always captured my imagination. I believe that manâs quest for finding his higher self not only created the beautiful architecture which carries its name but also engendered a more civilized world. This piece is symbolic of that tradition. We use the elements of the ribbed vaulting to make the high arches in combination with an abstraction of the symbol of the upturned cross. The 18 inch by 18 inch wooden top is tinted black. The gold is symbolic of the 4 centuries opulence of the Gothic period. Dimensions: 18" x 18" x 25"HProduct details...
Gothika Table
This design, as its name suggests, was originally conceived as a punk, almost S&M table with chains and barb wire nailed to the horn shaped legs. But before we took it to the forger for the kinky details, we refinished it with horn- realistic color. The new sheen brought out the extraordinary quality of the table's legs and skirt coupling. Following the "less is best" wisdom we left it as it is, kinks free, but kept the name. Dimensions: 21"w x 39"l x 17 ½"hProduct details...
Mediterranean Table
Informal dining seems to be the trend now a days. Solid rod tubing and structural geometric design insures stability, a characteristic trait of fine metal craftsmanship. Dimensions: 32"w x 32"d x 30"hProduct details...
Orchid Table
This piece is a unique piece in a sense that it reminds us of art nouveau, yet it is not . Its legs have the shape of deers legs yet they are thoroughly modern. And the top has carved orchids which give it a very feminine touch. Yet when you look you canât place her in any style. And thatâs the mystery which makes me like it. Construction Notes: The four corners of the skirt and its legs of the table are all joined in a 45 degree angle fit. The frame is square and in the interior is oval. The oval is the frame that holds a oval beveled glass . There are three orchids carved in each of the four corners. The skirt also has carved cut-out orchids. To get the deer like legs, whose top are hollowed inside, our carver has to do his magic in all four of them. Dimensions: 31" height x 42" length x 18" widthProduct details...
