The brief
A private client wanted a round dining table, 180 cm in diameter, with a radial sunburst top in ash and an octagonal pedestal. The table was developed together with 2XJ architects and made in our workshop in Lithuania.
How the sunburst top is made
The top is ash veneer over a stable core. Because of this design, the edges are made in solid wood. The surface is laid out as a sunburst: rays around a centre disc, with two rings.
Each ray is a tapered segment. The segments are matched for grain and colour, so the rays meet cleanly at the centre and at the rings. The pedestal below is octagonal, in solid ash.
Sample first
Before making the full table, we made a sample: one slice of the top, like a slice of pizza. Once it was approved, we made the complete table. From order to finished table took about two months.
