WHAT THE JUDGES SAID
A visually light piece, with strong emphasis on the floating horizontal shelves achieved through the use of sycamore. The choice of American walnut as a dark contrast reinforce the illusion of floating by making the legs disappear. Ruth Thompson
With its great stance, Scott Storey’s hall table is eye catching but never overbearing with its beautiful easy bends, subtle shaping and tapers. This piece would happily fit in many a home. William Bayliss
