If anybody has an interest - the table top consists of Black Limba, walnut, cherry and paduak (from the inside out).
The lower shelf and legs are made from ash that has been stained black and “walnut” color.
It’s difficult to see but there is some subtle but amazing grain matching on the lower shelf.
Overall I am very happy with the results of the piece, it’s not perfect but those secrets die with me.
It’s time for a bit of a holiday from the shop, I reckon.

It looks awesome.
Being a trades person involved in so much oil and gas work often my skills are used for art projects time to time.
Did you use a branding iron for all those shapes? I have made quite a few. I am assuming the answer is yes.
With metal I can amaze people. Yet that finish on the wood I would not have a clue how to do that.
That job took alot a time and effort clearly. I bet it was not cheap either. It looks expensive and it should be.
I always find it funny when someone wants something that is unique and a one off never to be done again, yet thinks they should pay walmart pricing.
It looks amazing.
Well done!
