Sequoia Burl Coffee Table, North America 1970s (sold)

$0.00

Burl wood furniture is one of those design moments that seems to last forever—and with good reason. Popularized in the Art Deco and Hollywood Regency eras (and again in the 1970s), burl wood is having a major resurgence in modern interior design.

The beautiful coffee table is a stunning example of nature's artistry showcasing the inherent beauty of wood in its organic state. Wood burls are external knots or growths on trees that form intricate wood grain patterns as seen on the tabletop. The random wood grains create denser, stronger wood that is sturdy and highly prized for its beauty. This model evokes intrigue and drama, and like a precious geode, the appeal of its burl wood body is apparent. On its body, especially on the top, it features swirling, knotted, kaleidoscopic and other organic wood grain shapes that catch the eye and add a unique look, making each piece one of its kind. One of the main reasons why interior designers love burl wood is because no two pieces are exactly alike. Strikingly bold, yet natural and fresh, burl wood furniture makes a statement unlike any other. Turning the material into such a polished, but organic shape evidently required artisan work that adds to the beauty. The smooth and shiny finish enhances the natural beauty of the wood, without being overly showy. The finish adds a touch of sophistication and durability to the table, ensuring it will stand the test of time. This model exudes a sense of harmony and balance, as if it was meant to be a part of the surrounding environment.

From most angles, this low coffee table could easily be mistaken for a sculpture with an elemental impression. Burl wood isn’t just rare - it is proof that imperfections can be gorgeous. The intricate wood grain patterns add rich character and an element of surprise to any room.
