Extending marquetry deck table
A rectangular deck table in solid teak with a geometric marquetry top and two extension leaves, finished in varnish and mounted on a polished stainless steel pedestal. It combines two demanding disciplines in one piece: decorative marquetry and a working extension mechanism.
The marquetry top is assembled from shaped pieces of teak set into a geometric pattern, every joint tight and every line true, so that the figure of the wood does the decorative work without any inlay of another material. The two extension leaves add the harder problem: the pattern and the surface have to continue across the leaves so that the top reads as one design whether closed or extended, and the leaves have to sit dead flush with the fixed top in both positions. Rounded solid edges frame the whole thing and a varnished finish protects and lifts the marquetry.
Workshop-fabricated and fitted on board, the finished table works as flexible outdoor dining — compact when closed, generous when extended — while carrying a decorative top made entirely in teak. Bespoke deck furniture that earns its place through both its mechanism and its craftsmanship.
The correct intervention starts with the correct diagnosis.
