Sekijoju Bonsia Chess Table, a commission I did for
The client wanted a sculptural piece to display their handmade chess set. We decided a root-over-rock style bonsai sculpture was the perfect fit. The base is out of wenge. The Rock is a sedimentary stone. Several days scribing the walnut so the trunk and roots fit naturally around the stone, look as organic as possible. Once the roots were scribed to the stone, I used floating tenons to attach the walnut branch blanks to the trunk, then carved the entire assembly into a bonsai form substantial enough to support the chess table. For the tabletop, I wanted to let the chess set speak for itself, so I kept things understated and used wenge again to tie the color back to the base. The top features a pull-out shelf on each side, which is handy for wine glasses and captured pieces as you play. A mirror inlaid into the surface adds a subtle touch that helps highlight the chess set itself. The whole piece came together as a beautiful sculpture and a true conversation starter.
