USA, 1977 American black walnut, rosewood 120 w x 47 d x 28¼ h in (305 x 119 x 72 cm)
The simplicity of this table belies the elegance and craftsmanship of such a large-scale design.
The book matched, sap grain top is joined by five rosewood butterfly joints, resting on two plinths; the ten-foot surface expands in a dramatically rectilinear fashion. Tables of this size are a rarity in the market; Nakashima created this form specifically for the residence of architect John Hoffman, a home designed in the style of Frank Lloyd Wright. more
