Iroko Coffee Table
£295.00
Made by my Dad, a retired Joiner and Cabinet Maker. This lovely Iroko Coffee table would have been made Circa 1984. The design typical of this era displays elegant tapered legs. Originally finished with French polish, then unsympathetically painted. It has now been stripped and returned to its raw natural beauty as the tapered legs become back in vouge. Iroko is a naturally oily timber. A light coat of Osmo oil is all that is needed to further enhance the characteristic wood grain.

All of my pieces are created from the ground up with care, love and attention to detail. I like to think of it as not work, but a passion! Akin to that of any artist or sculptor. Your purchase therefore becomes not only a business transaction, but a bond we share for our love of design, nature and our environment that translates to functionality.
Wabi Sabi, ”perfect imperfection”, a Japanese phrase that epitomises this entire collection. Please do take the time to consider this and it’s concept carefully before your purchase.
Timber generally is a live organic medium. In short it can be unpredictable. After a lifetime of avoiding splits, cracks and knots in my work, I now delight in their beauty and characteristics. Likewise please accept that this piece may change in various ways overtime. Ultimately however it is, by design, not built to be perfect. It is it’s imperfections that make it to both you the consumer, and me, it’s creator – Perfect!
