Description

Large 1930’s Mouseman Adzed Oak Dining Table – Fat Mouse!

This is a wonderful quality, large Mouseman oak dining table that is in superb condition and a lovely original colour. Features the earlier pegged through table top and the fattest signature mouse we have ever seen! Perfect for dining but would make a super desk too.

This earlier Mouseman dining table has a far more individual feel to it, rather than the standardised models that are more recently made. The thickness to the oak timbers is greater in the earlier models like this one and the mice are larger and more unique, where as later ones are pretty much identical and less characterful.

Height: 75cm (29.76")

Width: 86cm (34.13")

Depth: 168cm (66.67")

Date of Manufacture

Preservation requires maintaining stable indoor humidity and temperature levels to prevent the timber from warping or splitting. Regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth and occasional treatment with natural beeswax help nourish the wood and maintain its protective finish without causing damage.

An adzed oak dining table serves as a robust focal point that anchors a dining space. It pairs well with minimalist modern seating to create a striking contrast between contemporary design and traditional craftsmanship, or within a rustic-chic setting alongside neutral textiles and artisanal ceramics.

Authentication relies on inspecting the signature carved mouse, which should be hand-carved in high relief with careful attention to detail. Additionally, genuine early pieces display authentic adzing marks, specific patination consistent with age, and construction characteristics typical of the Kilburn workshop during that era.

Authentic pieces are predominantly constructed from English oak, selected for its durability and rich grain. Traditional joinery methods, such as pegged mortise and tenon joints, are utilised alongside the signature manual adzing technique, which leaves distinctive textured facets across the wooden surfaces.

Mouseman furniture originated in Kilburn, North Yorkshire, founded by Robert Thompson in the early 20th century. Inspired by local traditional craftsmanship and the Arts and Crafts movement, Thompson and his workshop adopted the carved signature mouse as a trademark following a playful remark about being as poor as a church mouse.
