The glass-inlayed coffee table was cut from a cross-section ring, following the natural wood grain and unique edge of the slab. It is framed on top with a glass insert intricately shaped to follow the wooden outline. It glows with a rich smooth finish synchronising with its circular shape and tapered bulbous base. Add a modern touch that blends effortlessly with natural fabric to brighten up your living room.
Ernst was born into a wood-crafting family in Austria, spending his early years in his father’s woodworking factory. Later, he competed his apprenticeship at the family factory, specialising in bespoke commissioned and custom-made furniture. Ernst dream was to gain experience in wood design and crafting all over the world and finally reached South Africa in 1968 where the warm, sunny climate and landscape abundant in beautiful indigenous trees attracted him. He has been designing custom-made furniture since then, spending time creating and training other woodworkers in this unique craft.
