Using pieces of solid timber in fixed lengths, the base of the Nest Coffee Table is created by building an intricate “nest.” Handmade to order, the timber pieces are available in your choice of finish. The nest base then supports a clear glass table top to create an elegant coffee table that is suitable for both residential and commercial use.

The Nest Coffee Table is designed by MacMaster Furniture, a contemporary lighting and furniture company started by Alex MacMaster. The Nest Dining Table, which is an extension of the Nest Coffee Table and can sit up to six guests, is also available for order from MacMaster Furniture.

Thus, the glass sphere of the lamp hovers over the wooden base. They are designed for low-energy bulbs, so the glass spheres are the same size as the wooden base. There are two sizes available – small and large. The larger lamps have a glass sphere made from hand-blown glass. The base is made from natural wood.
