Vintage Monkey Pod Wood Coffee Table

It is tough to find the provenance of pieces like these.  They are rarely marked and with the natural slab shape there are few distinguishing details to help identify the maker.  Monkey pod wood furniture and accessories were popular in the 50's and 60's and the current trend favoring reclaimed and natural furniture made this piece a good one to restore.  This piece has already been purchased but thought I would add it to the blog for posterity.

Natural elements work well with almost any decor style and this vintage monkey pod wood slab coffee table is ready to be a highlight in your living room. The 2" wood slab was just refinished to bring out the natural beauty of the wood. The legs had a worn brass finish on them, I've stripped off the brass and polished the steel for a fresh, more updated look. This table looks like new. New or vintage wood slab tables typically sell for more.
