Our Seneca Dining Table is a testament to fine craft. Designed around the principles of hand-cut joinery, such as large bridle joints and butterfly keys, the table's simple form highlights both the wood selection and skilled craftsmanship. The table top is created from a pair of book-matched Cherry slabs which are "stitched" together with a series of large butterfly keys. The table's base is equally as beautiful as its top.

The Lake Tahoe table is a testament to fine Craft. Designed around the principles of handcut joinery, such as large bridle joints and butterfly keys, the table's simple form highlights both the wood selection and skilled craftsmanship. The table top is created from a pair of book-matched walnut slabs which are "stitched" together with a series of large butterfly keys.

The shallow curves on both the top and bottom of the legs create a sense of movement to the design and help guide your eye across the structure. The Lake Tahoe table is a perfect dining table for both the rustic...
