With an understated shelf, beveled through-tenons, and stretchers shaped at the ends to corbel-like curves, this coffee tables evokes the traditional Arts and Crafts style without being too serious. The split panel and its curving cutouts bring a bit of whimsy to the design. Stub tenons on the shelf-to-rail joinery help deal with the issue of cross-grain construction. The legs are slightly splayed, giving the table a solid stance.
