Live Edge Coffee Table- Black Walnut- X Style Steel Legs- Black- Industrial- Modern- Rustic
This live edge coffee table is made from a beautiful slab of figured black walnut. The table top was a remnant cut from a larger build and thus recycled/upcycled opposed to being discarded. It was way to gorgeous not to create something with this chunky slab of hardwood. Note the bold dragon tail figuring that appears like a starburst from one corner throughout the center of the coffee table. It's naturally striking! The top has been planed flat, sanded smooth and finished in a proprietary satin sheen poly. The finish is able to handle moisture, heat and daily usage. The table top had multiple deep drying checks. The checks have been filled with a tinted resin. One portion of the coffee table features a straight edge (not live edge). The legs for the coffee table are x-style tubular steel that have been sprayed in a satin black poly. The finish on the steel legs not only protects the steel, but also ties in the chocolates, dark browns and blacks found on the table top. This handmade piece of furniture is a great mix of modern, rustic, industrial and contemporary design. It's a versatile piece that can fit in with any interior design scheme. This piece is ready to ship! Measures approximately 33" l x 24" W x 18" H.

Kentucky LiveEdge is operated by craftsman Drew Gahafer. He creates quality live edge furniture and unique applications for home and office.
Drew Gahafer is a self-taught woodworker, artist and furniture designer that got his start by upcycling furniture that was either thrown away, neglected, or purchased for mere pennies at yard sales or consignment shops. Plastics, glass, metals and wood were all materials that he was intrigued on refurbishing and building with. In 2008 he built his family home, which was a narrow shotgun style house. After weeks of housing the traditional square coffee table, he realized the dimensions took up 1/3 of the rooms space. In an effort to create something customized for his home space, he traveled back to his roots and brought back 2 narrow live edge slabs from a sawmill in Eastern Kentucky. By the time his first two pieces were near completion, his family and friends made offers on both pieces. He obliged and returned to the mountains for 5 live edge slabs of wood. Once those 5 were near completion, same story. To this day, his home lacks a coffee table.
