At first glance, the Chunky Timber Coffee Table looks like a row of logs awaiting their turn at the lumber mill. And I wouldn’t be surprised if they were before somebody had the clever idea of turning them into this gorgeous living room piece.
Made by Viva Terra, it’s a beautifully-crafted living room table that’s actually made using a single chunky slab that’s been woodworked to create the unusual appearance. That’s right, it isn’t a row of six joined timbers – someone just cleverly fashioned the darn thing to look like it was to mess with your head. I know, I hate it when people mess with my head, too.
Described as “modern, urbane, and dignified,” the Chunky Timber Coffee Table features a unique styling that’s definitely going to stand out in any living room. Raised low, the extra-thick tabletop is supported by an indented pedestal base that only serves to make the log-like appearance even more pronounced. Seriously, this thing looks like it will stay in place even if a tornado ransacks your house.
Construction is reclaimed Douglas fir, with a styling that preserves the weathered character of the wood, so you can tell guests that the piece has been with your family for generations. And yes, it’s an absolute lie you will totally get away with because this thing looks like it’s survived multiple tornadoes, indeed. Dimensions are 44 x 28 x 12 inches (l x w x h).
Available directly from Viva Terra, the Chunky Timber Coffee Table is priced at $1,350.
