Everything you need to know
Detailed information about this piece — tap a section to expand.
This mushroom side table is carved from a single solid-wood trunk. The wide, round live edge top flows into a tapered hourglass pedestal base that narrows at the center and flares at the root for stability. The shape comes from the wood itself, not from assembly or lamination.
No two pieces look the same. The grain radiates from the center of the pedestal, and every knot, burl, and growth ring stays visible. Our Vietnamese artisans carve and sand each table by hand.

Four sizes
Small (14"D x 18"H): Fits tight spaces, works as a plant stand or drink table beside a reading chair.
Medium (18"D x 22"H): Standard side table height. Good next to a sofa or bed.
Large (22"D x 24"H): More surface area for a lamp, books, and a glass. Works as a nightstand.
Extra Large (28"D x 26"H): Statement piece. Enough room to use as a small coffee table or display surface.
One-piece construction
The tabletop and base are carved from the same solid wood trunk. No joints, no veneer, no separate parts glued together. The wood grain runs continuously from top to bottom.
Live edge round top
The tabletop keeps its natural live edge perimeter. The outline is slightly irregular, different from every angle. If you like this look, check our coffee tables for larger live edge surfaces.
Hourglass pedestal base
The base is hand-shaped into a pinched, waist-like form. Wide at the cap, narrow at the neck, flared at the root. This is the mushroom silhouette that gives the table its name.
Natural oil finish
A hand-applied oil finish brings out the grain and protects the surface. Smooth to the touch, warm honey-to-amber tones that shift in natural light. No plastic lacquer.
Works anywhere
Nightstand, living room side table, plant stand, accent table in an entryway. Pairs well with linen, rattan, stone, and other natural textures. Fits Japandi, boho, organic modern, or rustic interiors.
How this compares
Most mushroom end tables on the market are either tree stump stools with flat cuts or assembled pieces with separate tops and bases. This one is carved from a single trunk into a true hourglass form with a live edge top. Our artisans spend days shaping each piece by hand. That is the difference between a stool and a sculptural side table.

Furniture Placement
- Position your furniture away from direct sunlight, or use blinds or curtains to reduce sun exposure.
- Always set your furniture on a level surface to preserve its balance and structure.
Cleaning & Upkeep
- Regularly wipe down your furniture with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals like bleach or ammonia, as these can ruin the finish and damage the wood.
Weight Capacity & Use
- Respect the recommended weight limit for each piece to ensure its durability.
- When moving furniture, lift it instead of dragging or pushing to prevent surface scratches or joint damage.
Preventing Mold & Mildew
- Quickly wipe up any spills to stop moisture from penetrating the wood.
- In areas with high humidity, use a dehumidifier to maintain an ideal moisture balance.

What separates handcrafted from factory-made
Both are solid wood. Both look beautiful in catalog photos. But the difference shows up when you live with the piece for 10 years and again when you pass it down.

No two tables are ever the same
Every plank carries its own grain, color, and knots. These aren't flaws - they are time's signature, the fingerprint of a tree that lived for decades. When you touch a Ashdeco table, you're touching the years it stood through.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about our pieces, commissions, and care.
How long does shipping take?
In Vietnam: 3-5 days. International: 10-14 days. Larger pieces (tables, cabinets) may take longer due to custom crating. All shipments include tracking and insurance.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship worldwide. Shipping is calculated by weight + dimensions at checkout. You'll see the exact quote before paying.
How long does a commission take?
4-8 weeks depending on complexity. A 6-seater dining table takes ~6 weeks, a console cabinet ~4 weeks, a large sideboard ~8 weeks.
Do I need to pay a deposit?
50% deposit is required when you confirm sketches. The remaining 50% is due when the piece is finished, before shipping. Full refund within 48 hours of deposit if you change your mind.
How do I take care of my wood piece?
Wipe with a damp cloth — no chemicals. Apply wood oil 1-2 times per year (we include a starter bottle). Avoid direct sunlight and big humidity changes.
What if my piece develops cracks?
Wood expands and contracts with humidity — minor cracks are natural and part of the material. Major cracks within the first year: we fix free. After 1 year, we charge labor only.
Can I return a piece?
Ready-made pieces: 30-day returns (must arrive intact). Commissions: final sale (since they're custom-made for you). If anything arrives damaged, we'll repair or replace at no cost.
