We finished our upstairs bathroom last year and my better half has been after me to get a small table for the bathroom corner to set our clothes on when showering. So... I'm at an Amish furniture place and see this table. Prefect size, maybe 18" x 18" x 26" high or so. Price was good for what it is, so I grabbed it. I'm a sucker for any figured wood anyway... I wish I could say I made it... Maybe someday in my retirement days.
Thanks guys... Don't mean to be a show off. I'm just a fan of wood in any form. I gave it to my wife for our anniversary coming up. Table was 125.00 out the door. From what I see at "regular" furniture stores with cheap China laminates, it's not too bad. Nicely made too, but with the curly maple, I look at it as something to pass on to my kids some day. He told me the legs were brown maple stained with black ebony stain.
Thanks Jon... I thought you would like it. I need a dresser for the extra bedroom and have been talking with the Amish guy who built my walnut slab bed... He has been enticing me that if I wanted walnut, he has an uncle that works at the sawmill who has been stashing away highly figured walnut. He used a few pieces of it for the legs of my bed. I would describe it as quilted or gun stock quality... Can't stop thinking about this now....
