A table base is not to be overlooked! At Phillips Collection, our intention is to utilize as much of the tree and root as possible to help clear the land to make it usable again. In our travels, we find various types of tree roots that we unearth, then cut, clean out, kiln dry, and are then able to repurpose as astonishing tables. Notice how it is the buried interwoven roots that make the most interesting surfaces after they are turned over. Sometimes the parts that don’t reveal themselves turn out to be the most beautiful.
