FAQs

A refectory table is a long, narrow dining table originally designed for communal dining in monasteries during the medieval period. Subsequent revivals in the late 19th and early 20th centuries adapted the form using solid woods like oak for use in domestic dining rooms and public halls.

Tables from around 1900 were predominantly constructed from solid hardwoods such as oak, pine, or beech, joined using traditional mortise and tenon timber joints to withstand heavy daily use.

Authentic pieces from this period exhibit signs of hand-tooling or early machine-planing, natural surface patination, linear graining typical of aged oak, and period-appropriate joinery techniques along the apron and leg attachments.

A large wooden refectory table can be paired with contemporary dining chairs or a long bench to balance traditional timber construction with modern design lines in a dining room or open-plan kitchen.

Clean the surface regularly using a soft cloth dampened with warm water, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish occasionally to preserve the wood grain and protective finish.
