White on Black hall table

White on black console table
curly maple top
This piece was inspired by an incredible board of curly maple destined to be milled into a handrail.

I thought it would be dramatic to display its figure by making only the top from curly maple and using dark wenge for the legs and aprons.  This, in conjunction with a subtle reveal, creates an illusion that the top is levitating.
