One piece of furniture we are taking

So about a year ago, I made a coffee table for us. I contemplated the design for a while and wanted to create something unique that I had never seen before. The only thing I knew is the type of wood I wanted to use (zebra and wenge), but I was playing around with the design.

I was pretty happy with the end product and actually made another table similar to it for a customer. I wanted a chunky, solid look for the legs and I wanted the top to have a hidden drawer and look like a thick slab of wenge. I originally wanted the legs to be seen through the top, but ended up changing the design. You can see the progress photos below.

To make the top more interesting, I inlayed along the length of the table two stripes of wenge, but with the grain going in the opposite direction of the rest of the table. It's subtle, but I like it.

So this is one of the two pieces that I have actually built for us in the past few years that I am taking with me when I move.
