A river runs through it

The couple who commissioned this table and chairs live right next to the scenic Damariscotta River. Bill crafted the top out of burled English brown oak so that the grain pattern would also have a sense of flow. Supporting the top is a hefty base of richly colored solid mahogany and a sturdy stretcher across the bottom, all balanced by finely turned mahogany legs. If you also have a large open room, a substantial piece like this may be the perfect complement.
