Hawaiian Table
This table came to when my kids and i came across this iron wood driftwood root stump that washed up at the beautiful Hanalei Bay, Kauai. It was all ready a piece art! Now to make it functional art. A table came to mind with this solid base, and the stumb to protrude through the top, so the end grain or growth rings would be exposed. The reclaimed slab top is Monkey Pod or Raintree.
Hawaiian Table
Natural live-edged Monkey Pod slabs are scribed together and frame the mosaic of lava stones that I cut into hexagonal pieces. Top is finished off with a natural resin.
