FAQs

Refectory tables originated in medieval monasteries, where they were used in the dining hall (refectory) for communal meals by monks.

These tables are traditionally constructed from heavy hardwoods like oak, utilising mortise and tenon joints with pegged stretchers for structural stability.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-planed surfaces, traditional joinery without modern fasteners, and natural patination and wear consistent with age.

Pair the substantial wooden piece with contrasting modern seating, such as minimalist metal chairs or upholstered velvet dining chairs, to balance historical weight.

Clean unsealed wooden surfaces using a damp cloth and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals, and periodically apply natural oils or wax to prevent drying.
