Description
This table is a custom order for an entry table hand forged out of iron. The client was inspired by the art deco look and from there we started a design focused on a style, budget and simplicity. The joints are done in a traditional manner: holes that are slit and drifted, tenons forged at the end of the bars and riveted together, the end of the bars are "upset" where I forge material back into the stock; all with absolutely no welding. I was asked to focus on a simplistic design revolving around the forged arch detail complemented with an art deco feel. This has a black and lacquer finish.

Below are some pictures of the progress. I draw the table to scale and get approval before I do any forging. Each piece is hand forged from standard 1" square stock.

This Arts and Craft Style Entry Table is:

Base: 18.5" wide x 21.5" long and 29" tall.

Glass top: 20" x 25"
