This table gives the client choices as to which top they want to use at any given time.  The base is ebonized hardwood which has a recess into which sits the circular veneered insert.  The insert can be lifted out then flipped.  Beveled glass covers the insert and base.  I've made two of these and they prove to be very fun for clients in that for lunch they can have one look and for dinner a totally different effect.  62"dia x 30"h Seats 8

A beautifully designed a made table, well done.

A question if you will. I have been considering building a 60" round table, but I am struggling with the type of legs to use in order to seat eight comfortably. You have used 4 beautiful legs; did you use a narrower chair?

Thanks for sharing it.
