Description

The Lawson-Fenning San Rafael Palo Coffee Table has the kind of presence that comes from proportion rather than excess. A substantial 42-inch round top shows off the natural oak grain, while the softly curved sculptural base gives the table visual weight without making it feel heavy.

Handcrafted in Los Angeles, the San Rafael Palo is part of Lawson-Fenning’s Southern California collection, drawing from the relaxed modernism and traditional woodworking influences that shaped California interiors. The clear oak finish keeps the wood warm and natural, making this an easy anchor for a living room with bouclé, linen, leather, walnut, stone, or other natural materials. Lawson-Fenning describes the design as having a handcrafted solid wood top and foot with a gently curved base that adds lightness to the classic form.

At 42 inches in diameter and 16 inches high, it is large enough to hold its own with a full-size sofa or sectional while retaining the circulation advantages of a round coffee table. The shape works especially well in contemporary, mid-century modern, California modern, organic modern, Scandinavian, and designer interiors where a rectangular cocktail table might feel too rigid.

The 42-inch San Rafael Palo currently retails for $4,975 new from Lawson-Fenning. This example offers the same designer scale, solid wood construction, Clear Oak character, and distinctive sculptural profile at a substantially lower secondary-market price.

Excellent pre-owned condition and presents very cleanly overall. Please review the photographs for current condition, wood grain, finish, and construction.
