Dovetail Coffee Table

Taking inspiration from the arts and crafts principle of visible joinery, this coffee table’s main feature is the three sliding dovetail supports. But there’s a twist, the centre dovetail is in fact a drawer! A perfect size for a remote or some coasters, the drawer can be accessed from both sides of the table.

The quarter sawn oak gives a pale “tiger stripe” figuring in the top, contrasting with the dark fumed oak of the sliding dovetails. Wedged tenons through the top and the legs give a nice detail to catch the eye.

Simple lines and a low slatted shelf give an elegant yet sturdy aesthetic.
