Mid Century Modern Bassett Artisan Walnut Surfboard Coffee Table

SOLD

This Mid-Century Modern coffee table from the Artisan Collection features a classic surfboard profile, gently curved outer edges, and a well preserved original finish.  Striking black walnut grain is visible on the top surface.  The spindled lower shelf provides a storage option without adding visual weight, while tapered legs and a contoured stretcher base complete this minimalist design.  Manufactured in the 1960’s, this American design was definitely inspired by renown Danish Furniture designer Grete Jalk and has a lovely profile.

Mid Century Live Edge Cypress Table with Hairpin Legs

SOLD

vintage-live-edge-cypress-table-hairpin-legs

This mid century cypress table features highly figured grain pattern and an highly irregular live edge. Perched on bare hairpin legs with fluctuating fingers of wood that reach in all directions, this coffee table is the perfect complement to a sectional sofa.  This beautiful slab of old growth cypress is protected with an epoxy coat with some light scratches noted.  Cypress was often used in the mid twentieth century to make wall clocks as well, as its surprisingly light weight makes it easier to manipulate. We purchased this slab in Callao, Va so it was likely harvested in Virgina’s Northern Neck.
