Cherry and Marble Table

Designed to go under a particular window in a specific room of a custom home in the Atlanta, Georgia area, this table is made of solid wild Cherry with a marble top enhanced with Ebony inlays in the top, at the top of the legs and as ankle bands.  I cut the Ebony inlays for the top and top of legs 1/4 inch thick.  The ankle bands are actually solid blocks that go all the way through the legs with hardwood dowels coming up from the bottom to tie the three leg pieces together.
The marble is 1 1/8 inches thick and comes from the same batch that was used to make the fireplace hearth for the same room in which the table is placed.  The marble came from salvaged window sills from an old Sears and Roebuck store that was torn down years ago in Atlanta, Georgia.  Because the marble is so thick the table is very heavy.
