Opposing Arches Console Tables

Grace in curves. The tapered table top floats on a pair of downward arches, which are supported by the main upward arch.

I’ve been commissioned to make versions of this table for several customers. The common tie between all customers is that they use the table to display or accent other art works in their homes.

This page gives a quick explanation of how the tables were made.

Original Table - This is the first version that I built. I use it in my home and show it at exhibits.
Materials: East Indian rosewood, birdseye maple

Portland Opposing Arches - This table is much larger version, made to display a carving of a Pacific Northwest Indigenous Peoples canoe.
