The top was cut from a thick board and bookmatched to create nice symmetry. The edge detail is a partial round with a long bevel underneath to give the top a thin appearance while retaining its strength.

The column turning keeps a traditional look.  I've given the bulb a bit of visual weight, as if it is being affected by gravity.

The feet are a trick.  They go from being slightly curved at the column to being arris shaped at the toe, smoothly transitioning between.  The foot is complete with a beaded sole.

 

Made of South American Mahogany. The tea table was finished with linseed oil, shellac, Waterlox varnish and paste wax.
