A Syrian mother of pearl inlay side table with a tree-form fretwork motif across its top — branching lines of hand-cut shell that tell it apart from its rosette-topped counterpart from the same benches. The table is quality beech, 28 inches (73 cm) high, inlaid with 100% natural mother of pearl set against contrasting woods, one fragment at a time.
The height suits it to use beside a chair or as a bedside table, and the inlay wraps the whole form rather than the top alone — it reads as a decorative object as much as a functional accent table.
Placed near a window or a lamp, the shell does more for the piece than any amount of styling around it.
