Here is the the very beautiful Birdseye Maple. Not only do the eyes lend a special touch to this piece, but other qualities in the wood produce a wavelike shimmering effect as you turn the susan in the light.
Again, this is the very best top quality lumber available. I caution people to be aware that there are inferior grades of this species of maple. Generally they will be a much darker color, almost a tan. This top of the line grade is white in color making it quite desirable. That’s why I use it. I realize and understand that if you are considering a lazy susan for your beautiful dining room table, it must be as good a quality as the table it will be displayed on.
Other items you must consider are service and timely shipping. Does it annoy you when you hear your order will be shipped in 6 to 8, maybe even 12 weeks? When you pay top dollar for one of my pieces, you are assured of not only a high quality piece of furniture, you will also recieve top quality service. My commitment to you is that in most circumstances lead time will be limited to one week or less from date of order to ship date.
I am often asked “What size susan would be good for my table?” Well, if it’s going to be a decorative susan, then it can be any size you like. However, if it’s to be a functional piece, I like to recommend a minimum of 12 to 14 inches of “plate room” all the way around the susan. A good way to see how this would look is to make yourself a circle pattern out of paper. Click here for an easy way to make one. Then place it on your table and arrange some place settings around it. This will give you a very good idea as to how your susan will fit once you recieve it.
