Taboret
comments (0) January 29th, 2009 in Reader's Gallery
This taboret is constructed primarily of mahogany with poplar on the under side and also making up the drawers parts. The drawer fronts are made of Leopardwood (there is a drawer on each side). The top tilts both directions about 15 degrees and the entire table also may be raised and lowered on a dovetail rail, inset with aluminum bar, by which it can be locked into position. Traditional joinery is used throughout - dovetail, frame/panel, and mortise and tenon. It is finished with aniline dye and coated with tung oil and polyurethane. It is just about four foot wide.
