"Flyer" is part bird and part horse, like a mythological creature that comes swooping down. It is also an occasional table.

The geometric sections of the tail are carved from solid mahogany, textured, and painted with many layers of color to create depth and richness reminiscent of luminous feathers. "Flyer" can be lifted by its front handle and rolls on casters.
