A side table by Matthew Hensby, made with birch bark and a milled, blackened steel base.

Developed as part of experiments incorporating birch bark into furniture, the table brings the bark’s warm, leathery surface into a precise, rectilinear form. Natural variations in colour and fine markings remain visible across the square top and column, giving prominence to the character of the material.

Dimensions: W35 × D35 × H45 cm
