For many years, I've been struggling to choose between classic craftsmanship design and contemporary styles, and vice versa, until I ended up merging both of them into clean, simple lines with a signature of human hands. This table is made in memory of J.R.R. Tolkien and inspired by the kingdom of Gondor, which had been ruled by the line of Dúnedain. The table is made out of Sapele and beech, and the spring-interlocked joints are made to allow easy disassembly of the table when needed.
