Nearly two thousand dollars might sound like a lot, and it absolutely is, but for our money we had personal communication with the man who made our table, email updates at each stage, a choice of materials, style and finish, and delivery straight to our door. Compared to the crappy made in China furniture that is epidemic across the US, as well as overpriced (most sets we saw advertised cost well into four figures, what the heck?), we got a bargain.
