I was browsing around Ol’ Etsyland when I spotted this lovely handmade, MCM-Style table from seller Bald Man Mod. It struck me as something wonderful, so I thought I’d share. Here’s what Baldy himself has to say about the table:

The bald man releases the beast! This is a freshly built mid century modern style table- it ain’t 50 years old, but has the same swank feel.

Here are the details:
27.5 inches long, with the table top tapering from 14 inches to 11.5 in width. Table itself is 11 inches tall plus the leg height. The inner cabinet is 9.5 inches deep, and the door is 11.5 inches long by 9.5 inches tall. The inner space is also 9.5 inches tall.

Made of 3/4 inch birch ply, with a nice dose of semigloss water based polycrylic. The door and inner wall are veneered with walnut and a hot racing stripe of maple. Used biscuit joinery to keep it together, and veneered with a vacuum press.

Customize the table by choosing leg style and height – hairpin or square tapered steel from 12″ to 18″. Legs are vintage, fresh from their original boxes. All tables are made to order.

Custom, handmade MCM-style table from Bald Man Mod – $350

    JJ, not sure if you’re talking about the table pictured here or what, but Grassroots Modern knows good stuff when it sees it. This table is worth, in their words, “something wonderful” from what I’m looking at!
