The piece reflects Dudouyt’s characteristic use of carved wood and straightforward, well-proportioned forms.

The table features a turned central column with repeating faceted carvings, each facet cut with precision, creating a structured vertical profile that showcases the maker’s skill in solid wood turning. A circular stained beech top is set atop the column, with a subtly rounded edge that highlights the natural grain of the wood. The circular base is carved with concentric ring detailing that echoes the tabletop’s rounded edge, tying the piece together visually. The table has generous, practical proportions, well suited as a distinctive occasional or side table.

The table is in very good, restored condition with a natural and even patina throughout. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
