This table was made by a friend from English Walnut. It has two 2' x 6' x 4" thick slabs of wood, solid 4" sides and pull out drawers. The coffee table weighs over 600 lbs. The tree that made this was cut nearly 50 years ago. The tree was estimated to be over 100 years old when cut down.
The top slab is actually a mix between two kinds of Walnut. You can see the contrast in the grain color and pattern. These radiate out from the original grafting staple, still in the wood. For the past two years, the table has been featured at the 9th Avenue Art Gallery in Chico, California. $16,000.
