I’m a novice woodworker. This table was built as a gift for my office assistant using a combination of hand and machine techniques. It’s approximately 26 inches wide and 12 inches deep. The design is a combination taken many sources.

The skirt is mahogany veneer over Bolivian poplar substrate using the bent lamination process. The legs are riff sawn mahogany (I believe that they are one of the African mahoganies). The inlay on the legs is holly and ebony and done by hand using techniques and shop built tools outlined by Steve Latta in his videos.

The top is ¾ in mahogany plywood with store-bought banding. Finish is semi gloss polyurethane varnish thinned and applied with cotton rags.
