First appearing in Assyrian architecture as a type of decorative running ornament featuring two intertwining bands that repeat in a pattern of crossing intervals, it continued through Greek and Roman culture, then became known in 18th-century France as guilloche, which spread throughout the Georgian period in England. It symbolized unity and eternity. In furniture, these designs were often botanically inspired, appearing as waves, snowflakes, ribbons, and—in the case of this altar table—interlocking rings colloquially called nowadays the ‘Olympic’ motif, referencing the Olympic rings created in 1913 by Pierre de Coubertin.
Placed in the most prestigious spot in the main living room of a colonial home, the family’s venerated santo images were enshrined on top of the altar table; prayer books, rosaries, candles, santo garments, and other important items were stored in its drawers. Made entirely of dark balayong wood (Afzelia rhomboidea), a highly prized rosewood, it features a reddish-brown hue that darkens with age. A solid one-piece top rests on a frame with two smaller drawers above a larger one, all fitted with silver escutcheons and hand-hammered iron drop bail handles, and inlaid with fine borders of kamagong and lanite wood looping below the keyhole and sharply caving at the corners. The Olympic motif, carved in low relief, appears vividly on all four side flanges that taper downward with ogee-shaped extensions, as well as on the front and side aprons, creating a beautifully balanced piece of colonial furniture. Standing on square tapered legs, placing its age fittingly around the middle of the 19th century.

This is also one of the first pictures I took with my new Canon 20D, just checking out its abilities.
Another composite, 3 photos: the background, the ball, and me. I needed to do 3 photos, tried to do it with one but I couldnt time it properly to get the effect that I had wanted and the shadows coming from me were too harsh. 2 flashes, one on the hotshoe with a bounce card and the other to my left in the photo
Three tables were completely covered in crawfish and vegetables. And beer. (Or Mike's hard lemonade, if you're the husbear's mama.)

We have a Landseer male, a big dog with needs for a stand for its food and water. The old table was in bad shape, so thought I could make a new one, easier to clean. Big dogs can make quite mess if they want. :)
As the main material, I used an old kids bed. I disassembled the bed with a mallet and then cut it into new pieces. To be easier to clean, I made the top part removable, and to avoid possible annoying clickety-clack noise, if the dog pokes the table, I placed rubber pads between the frame and top board. Hope you enjoy this idea.
