WAISTED SIDE TABLE. Of spare and elegant form, the single – board floating panel top with an additional board below forming a hollow center section, the legs set at the corners at flush right angles to the top and ending in beautifully drawn hoof feet. The molded edge of the frame members has a weak profile, the shoulder of the waisted apron is too sharp, and the straight legs meet the aprons with awkward, tight-radius corners. Setting these stylistic fails aside, the joinery and construction of this table are nonetheless, well executed.
