Human creativity knows no bounds. We can create anything we want as long as we have enough materials, time, and inspiration. Olivier Gomis, a professional woodturner for more than two decades showcases his talent and passion for his work in a short video explaining his work on this magnificent wooden table.
Called The Wormhole, Gomis created a coffee table that was inspired by the space phenomenon of the same name. He handmade this piece with just wood strips, along with a lot of time, expertise, and patience.
The table is shaped like a wooden plank that was bent and joined together by a double cone. This shape makes you think that it wasn’t really handmade, but it was! It can be done by creating different strips of air-dried walnut wood.
Gomis glued them together with maple veneer sheets in between (which gives the appearance of the white grid lines). The strips were cut and joined at different angles to form the table’s bent shape.
