Mahogany "cube-top" Table This unique piece is solid mahogany made with over 400 hand cut mahogany inlay pieces. The lighter and darker color variations are caused only by the way that the light reflects off the grain of the mahogany and no staining or coloring is used! Each of the hundreds of pieces of the inlay is selected for its grain orientation to achieve this dramatic appearance. 27" high x 18" top diameter	When you rotate the piece or walk around it, the "cube" pattern of the top and the lower shelf change in the way that the cubes appear to be "stacked". You can watch this dramatic effect; the cubes pop in and out and the light pieces become dark and dark pieces become light! This piece is featured in Taunton Press, Inc. "Fine Woodworking" magazine (April 2004 issue) and on their website at http://www.taunton.com/finewoodworking/Gallery/GalleryImage.aspx?id=4226.
