Lattice Coffee Table

Hand carved in West Africa, utilizing centuries old techniques, this coffee table is produced by the royal family of the Bamun tribe in Cameroon. Carved from the trunks of coffee shade trees which are brought down by the carvers at the request of the farmers when they become overgrown, this coffee table brings artisans and agriculture together to enrich one another. Seeking a more modern approach to the original Spider's Nest table, Tucker worked with the carvers to create a more minimalist version. The pattern speaks of the web the female mother spider wove that caught creation.
