Poplar table

This table came about when I found a great poplar plank at my local hardwoods dealer. This table is built from the same plank used in the Quaking Aspen leaf table. I love the surprise that people display when they learn the strong grain pattern and contrasting heartwood and sapwood is poplar. The bland greenish poplar most people are familiar with is only one species of this wonderful and fast growing group. This table features a contrasting base of Oregon black walnut. The top is lifted slightly to "float" about the base.
