THE ASSIGNMENT

“I have a beautiful amethyst and I would like to have a table built around it. For a long time I have been searching for someone who wants and can do this for me, but until now I wasn’t able to find anyone who wanted or could do this” according to Roy Masin of the Stone Gallery.

THE RESULT

Mark Waterman doesn’t say no to such a challenge! The size (160 x 120 cm.) and the weight (400 kgs.) of the amethyst didn’t scare him either.

The ideas on the material and the design of the table were already there, designed by Nathalie Petersen.  because of the structure and the dark color of the wood, Wenge was chosen, which matches the violet Amethyst beautifully.

After the molds for the base and the top were made, the table could be finalized. The size of this table is 460 x 160 cm. A real eyecatcher.
