FAQs

Early oak tables were traditionally utilised in monastic refectories and large manor houses during the 16th and 17th centuries for communal dining.

These pieces were constructed from solid English oak, often utilising pegged mortise and tenon joints, hand-turned bulbous legs, and heavy stretcher bases for stability.

Authenticity is indicated by deep natural patination, tool marks from hand-adzing, shrinkage splits, peg construction, and wear patterns consistent with centuries of use.

Pair the table with contemporary minimalist chairs to create a striking contrast, or anchor it within a traditional rustic scheme using neutral linens and simple ceramics.

Maintain the wood by applying natural beeswax periodically, avoiding direct sunlight and excessive heat sources, and using coasters to protect the surface from moisture.
