Forged Steel And Spalted Maple Coffee Table
This coffee table is a little smaller than some of our other coffee tables. We still wanted to find the right balance between the iron and the wood, the base and the top but our previous base design would have been too heavy for this top. The idea for this leg design had been floating around in the back of my mind for awhile and after a few tries we came up with this table and its balance of rustic sophistication.
