Root table stands on a leg sculpted from a single elm trunk, turned to reveal the raw geometry of nature. The timber, salvaged from a storm‑fallen tree, carries within it the narrative of resilience. Its construction borrows from the craft of drum‑making, ensuring the cylindrical form remains intact without splitting—a dialogue between tradition and innovation.
The tabletop is a reclaimed marble slab, rediscovered and re‑polished by hand. Its surface, marked by time yet renewed through craft, contrasts with the organic solidity of the base. Together, wood and stone form a sustainable and timeless piece, where natural materials and craft meet in architectural clarity.
