This piece is a study in contrasting materials which create an inviting side table for various environments. The wood structure carries a leather wrapped metal top which slips onto the legs. The top edges have an elegant inverted pleat gusset. The protective finish of the wood parts leaves the open pore structure of the wood, to retain the most natural appearance and feel. As the leather is unfinished, it has a wonderful natural hand, but it is impregnated with a water repellant finish that makes it resistant to spills that won't penetrate the surface.
