Inlay Table

As with most of our projects, this one began with a hand-drawn sketch.

A fully-detailed CAD drawing is completed before any fabrication begins. Presenting our clients with sketches and formal drawings provides confidence and reassurance that their ideas have been fully comprehended by our design team.

This photo shows our CNC router beginning to carve out recesses in the mahogany table top which will be inlaid with a light-colored maple. This work demands extreme precision to ensure that the inlaid parts fit perfectly.

With a dime in the picture for perspective, you can see just how delicate and precise this work is.

This photo shows more CNC routing with the intricately cut maple insert pieces in the shot, too.

Here you can see the completed inlay carving. Now the fun part will start!

Exactly how it's supposed to work! These inlay pieces fit perfectly into the recesses that have been carved out for them.

After sanding, the inlay proves to be an incredibly tight and perfect fit.

Every part of the inlay needs to fit precisely.

OK. This is really a show-off picture. But we wanted to illustrate how well these tiny parts fit together.

This close-up shows how close the tolerances are for an inlay such as this.

While the wood shop has been busy working on the inlaid table top, the craftsmen in the metal shop have been busy forging and assembling the base.

This photo was taken while the work was still fairly rough, but the brass design is clearly revealed through cut-outs in the iron skirts.

Here's another shot taken while the metal work is in progress.

Here's the final product. An exquisite custom table.

Beautiful scale and proportion underlie this gorgeous piece of craftsmanship.

Not to be outdone by the fancy wood inlay work, the metal table base has plenty of of its own fine details to brag about.

Don't overlook the fine details on the legs, including the understated brass trimmings.

The custom table was designed with other features of the home in mind. Details from the staircase balustrade were duplicated in the design of the table base. This beautiful railing system was also designed and built by Heirloom Stair and Iron.

The wine cellar door also flashes these familiar elements of the design.

Even the custom light fixtures in this residence carry evidence of the common design throughout. This outstanding work was also done by Heirloom Stair and Iron.

Positioned directly above the custom table, this chandelier occupies a crowning elegance to the total design of the room.

The table and chandelier were designed to deliver this precise effect in this very special space in the residence.

Exquisite ambiance in this wine tasting room is achieved by the lighting and decorating.

More of Heirloom's work is seen in this chandelier.
