This piece was built as a display table for reading material, refreshments, etc. at gallery openings for an art gallery in the Eastworks Building in Easthampton, MA. The surface is of native ash with a live edge. It is 42" high, 17" wide, and 72" long. The frame is made of 1" x 1/8" welded square steel tubing. The customer requested that the welding grinds show, so it is left as raw steel with a clear wax coating.
