Christopher Neal added a sculptural
element to his Ripple Tallboy with
the inclusion of CNC carved drawer

Thirston Morris’s Three’s Company
bench sat powerfully on the
perimeter of the display. A large
slab of Outeniqua yellowwood was
punctuated by narrow American
oak backrests. Thirston was mentor
to Kanun Onsel whose Trestle Table
Opus 1 sat on the opposite side of the
room. The focal point of this hallway
table was a glass top which laid bare
the oak ‘ribs’ which supported it.
