An 18th century grotesque ‘Dinemonyo’ altar table
Estimate: PHP 900,000 - 950,000
Manila
18th century
Wood
84 x 110 x 72 cm (33 x 43 x 28 ½ in)
Made of highly prized indigenous rosewood known as balayong (Afzelia rhomboidea), it has a reddish brown color that tends to darken even more with age, and has a natural luster. Very difficult to work with due to its durability and interlocking grain. The craftsmanship and condition of this table is comparable to similar tables kept in museums and top-notch private collections.
Called colloquially as dinemonyo table, it is one of the most elusive pieces of early Hispano-Filipino furniture, considered arguably as the pinnacle object to many serious furniture collectors and connoisseurs. An authentic example with original members, it is an extremely rare find.
The rectangular paneled top is enclosed by a frame with ice-plate edge to soften the edges and disguise its thickness. Below are two large drawers fitted with umbrella bosses, ornate protective key plates, and O-ring pulls. Reinforced by flanges and aprons with conforming billowing, cloud-like outlines that connect the demonyo masks on all four corners. These finely carved masks have raised fluted top hair, bulging eyes, prominent nose, mouth agape revealing some teeth and fangs, and scrolling facial hair. The cabriole legs show the delineations of a lion’s lower leg before terminating in deep, highly detailed ball and claw foot grasping a ball, resting on round-edged stretchers surmounted on ogee feet. Assembled using ancient Chinese mortise and tenon (closed and through types), as well as dovetail joints that have remained firm and strong.

I spotted these people as they sat at the tables provided by Gordy's for their customers, a large boat sales and accessories and storage business. Gordy's also has a snack shack with slightly expensive but good sandwiches and cold drinks available.
Sort of a commission! My grandson requested a table with a peace sign and a few flowers for his Christmas present. This is the result.
Made with glass fusion tiles, vitreous and pebbles on a 20" mdf base.
Those tree lights reflecting on cutlery sitting on the table awaiting our family Christmas dinner and celebrations!

Springdale, Arkansas.
This past weekend, my wife, daughter, and I met my parents for a weekend getaway over at Wagon Wheel Resort on Bull Shoals Lake in northern Arkansas. On the way, I decided we'd have lunch at a place that I've heard dozens of people in the Tulsa area say they've gone to for dinner, called AQ Chicken House....which is easily a 2 1/2 hour drive. After having lunch here, I could easily see why. This food is amazlingly outstanding. The blackberry cobbler a la mode I had was the best ever.
Update 12/7/23: AQ Chicken, sadly, closed its doors earlier this year.
