Shakers didn't have coffee tables. Probably didn't have coffee, either. But if they had I'm guessing this is what their coffee tables might have looked like. Built for the gallery show posted earlier, made of cherry with poplar for drawer interiors. Turned legs with simple one-ring pummels. Finished with linseed penetrator, followed by several coats of tung oil/linseed oil/varnish hand rubbed with 0000 steel wool, then waxed.
