It features a thick, free-form top resting on a simple base.

The wood is likely dark-patinated pine, or a softwood with a very interesting grain that adds light and dimension in places.
The original patina, with a thick and very durable varnish, gives it a truly authentic look.
The thickness of the top lends the piece a certain beauty. The beveled edges and the handcrafted shape contribute to its charm and uniqueness.
This one-of-a-kind piece has a slightly airy feel, with its simple base.

Original patina, and some imperfections in the wood are possible due to its large size. The base has been reinforced in the past with small, barely visible metal brackets.
