Curve Table by Craig Siebeneck

The Curve Table is an elegantly simple yet beautiful modern side table created by Craig Siebeneck for Alec-Reid Design. This custom made modern side table has a chunky, laminated wood top that cleverly attaches to the organically curved walnut base by two metal rods that make it look like it is almost floating a few inches in front of it. The hand-carved wood base is made from beautifully grained walnut stained in a dark finish making it the perfect accent to the lighter wedge shaped wood top.
