I love organic, unique pieces. 
These one of kind tables are crafted from vintage fabric woodcuts. Before the advent of the printing press the common method for creating printed fabric was to stamp the fabric with a carved woodcut. 
An artisan would painstakingly carve a design into a block of wood, then the "stencil" would be dipped in dye and placed on the fabric.

Although this method is considered rare now, it is still a practice that is sometimes used in the islands to create one of a kind fabrics. 
I love that these amazing tables are fashioned from the original woodcuts. Each piece is unique and seeped in history.
