Finger joints and ebony detailing on my version of the entry hall table from the Gamble house by Greene & Greene.  The brass pins are screws with the heads cut down as on the original.

The Gamble house entry hall table is a nearly perfect piece of furniture.  While my somewhat smaller implementation is less perfect than the original, after several years it still gives me pleasure each time I see it.

I've studied the actual table in the Gamble House in Pasadena, looking at it every time I visit. The design is timeless. Other than hue, this one is the most accurate reproduction I've seen.
