Feast your eyes on the majestic 72" diameter resin dining table by Martha Sturdy, Canada circa late 20th century. This table is a masterpiece of design, blending the opulence of bronze colored resin with the industrial chic of blackened steel.

The table's cast resin top is finished in a golden bronze color, creating a radiant surface that is alive with swirling patterns and an organic flow. The satin finish adds to the table's allure, capturing the light to reveal the intricate details and depth within the resin.

Resting on a robust X sled base made of blackened steel, the table is not only aesthetically pleasing but also exceptionally stable and durable. Beneath the resin surface lies a thick steel plate, providing added support and ensuring that the table can bear the weight of convivial gatherings and sumptuous feasts.

With a comfortable seating capacity for eight, this table invites you to gather your friends and family around for memorable dining experiences. While the provided photos offer a glimpse into the table's beauty, additional photos and videos are available to fully appreciate the craftsmanship and artistry of this piece.

Measuring 30.25 inches in height and 72 inches in diameter, this table makes a significant impact in any dining area, a statement piece commanding attention and admiration. The presence of minor scuffs and scratches on the resin surface speaks to its history and character, and as advised by Martha Sturdy herself, the resin can be easily restored to its original luster. Using fine sandpaper (400-600 grit) and mineral oil, the same method used in the finishing process, the satin sheen can be rejuvenated, highlighting the table's capacity for renewal and longevity.

Martha Sturdy began her career creating resin jewelry and wearable sculptures in the 1980s, and as her studio expanded, so did the scale of her creations. This dining table is a testament to her growth and creativity, crossing the boundary from jewelry to custom furniture, fixtures, and artworks. It stands as a monument to her vision, offering an unparalleled blend of form, function, and sheer splendor.
