Top: Rippled Sycamore from the Mendips
Base: English Walnut from Midsomer Norton, supplied by Nigel Howe Associates 

Created for exhibition at the Celebration of Craftsmanship in Cheltenham, this fabulous table defiantly pushes design boundaries.

The top almost floats above the sculpted base - an effect created by minimal contact between top and base and the use of invisible wall fixings. The winged base suggests flight and an airiness that belies the inherent rigidity and strength of the structure.

Sold to a private collector following the exhibition in Cheltenham.
