This is a zebrawood and walnut table that won “Best in Show” at a small local Art show here in Massachusetts.
The legs have a slight taper after the bent lamanated streachers.
It’s 30” H x 29” W X 10” D
I enjoy the look zebrawood but find it’s end grain tears out easy when routing a curved edge.
I made this before joining LJ. I know now to take more pictures of my work.

Very nicely done! I really like the sizing of the legs. Do you mind if I ask what the dimensions are?
