reclaimed Redwood top with figured Cherry base
linseed oil blended beeswax and carnauba wax
This is the 2011 edition of my simple taper-leg table . This circular version of my Shaker Tables features curved aprons and a gentle yet springy curved flare at the foot . The piece features an old growth redwood top (likely Giant Sequoia sequoiadendron giganteum as opposed to "common" Coast Redwood) which I surgically extracted from a large wooden sculpture that my client owned . The finish is my new recipe which incorporates carnauba wax with my standard formula linseed oil /beeswax finish . The carnauba wax builds to a higher sheen , which enlivens the subtle fiddleback figure in the Cherry .
