Just made this desk



I made this desk with a reversable bamboo top, utilizing my signature handmade artisinal bamboo. One side is stained dark walnut brown and the other is natural with dark highlights. I kept the thickness rather light at one inch. The trim is reclaimed Brazilian jacaranda from an antiques dealer friend who imports directly from Brazil. The jacaranda I bought from him was orginally used as flooring for a factory built in the 19th century.
The legs are made from American oak. I added a simple chamfer detail to soften the angularity.
