	Each end of the table has a curved rail that is concentric with the table top. The figured grain of the Cherry is displayed here.
	Tapered legs lighten up the table's appearance without compromising the integrity of the structure.

Made of local Black Cherry from Ashby, Ma. The table was exposed to ammonia fumes to give it a rich brown color. It was then finished with linseed oil, padded shellac, varnish and wax.
