American Maple Dinining Table with Walnut Inlay
Length: 268cm. Width: 88cm. Seats: 8-10.
One of a kind handmade dining table using American maple and walnut, made in Brisbane, Australia. This split top dining table can seat 8-10 people.
This table has been nominated in the Australian Wood Review Maker of the Year awards.
I was inspired by Japanese and Korean woodworkers for this design. Simple, sleek lines and using unique qualities of the wood to bring out character. You will notice the use of walnut bowtie inlays to bring together natural cracks in the wood in a stylish way that contrasts the light maple colour. A walnut board is also used as the support beam for further contrast.
This table uses traditional joinery methods - no screws or metal joints. The top slides together by sliding dovetail joints that are precisely cut into the top of the legs. A hint of brass can be seen between the two top pieces at either end - this ensures the top pieces are level with each other and adds a lovely touch of that rustic brass colour which suits the maple and walnut. I would recommend wood chairs of maple and walnut to match this dining table. See these chairs by another woodworker for example: https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/604601356/modern-dining-chair-handmade-in-solid
The only non-traditional additions to this piece are stablising plates of steel bolted to the underside of the table top to stop any warping of the wood over time. This process can be seen in detail and explained well by Black Tail Studio on YouTube.
Traditional wood joinery and unique inlays add to the price of this table, and I am happy to have a video call to go through more details of the table with anyone interested.
If you like the style of this table but are interested in a different size or wood type, please contact me and we can discuss.
