I made this for friend several years ago. It is one of the first pieces of furniture i made. It is red oak and rosewood.
Asian influence, i think I got the idea from a picture of a bed on the internet.


I used some bridal joints.

You might want to consider re-sizing those 3 project pics; they are teensie-weensie.

But, good looking table from what I can tell.
