Figure Eight Table

This purple handmade table is made of dyed Baltic birch plywood and features hand dyed handwoven cotton fabric that is pieced and sewn together in semi-circles. The two fabric semi-circles are each housed in boxes that drop below the surface of the table top and are protected under glass that sits flush with the top. The laminations of the plywood are used throughout the piece as decorative striped elements as seen in finger joints on the boxes and horizontal stripes on the legs. The artist does both the woodworking and the fiber art.
