Tropique Table


DIMENSIONS: 52"L x 20"W x 12"H

 

MATERIALS: Tropical almond and brass

 

DETAILS: This table is designed by India Foster and made from reclaimed tropical almond and brass. The solid, curved wood top sits atop a solid brass leg. The table is handmade in Miami by a master craftsman. Tropical almond is tropical hardwood with a vibrant grain and warm hue. The species is highly invasive in South Florida and the trees are being removed in an effort to restore native ecosystems. The timber is milled locally in South Florida and cured for several years before it is ready for use. The organic shape of the design is informed by the natural shape and contours of the wood.
