FAQs

Refectory tables originated in medieval monasteries where monks gathered for communal meals in dining halls known as refectories. Over the centuries, the design evolved from utilitarian monastic boards into grand, highly decorated dining furniture featuring carved friezes and sturdy stretchers.

These tables are traditionally constructed from heavy domestic timber, primarily English oak, utilising time-honoured joinery techniques such as mortise and tenon joints, pegged construction, and hand-carved detailing.

Authentication relies on examining tool marks, timber shrinkage, oxidisation patterns, hand-cut joinery, and natural wear consistent with age rather than artificial distressing.

Pairing a heavy wooden table with minimalist modern seating or contemporary lighting creates a striking contrast that highlights the historic grain and craftsmanship while keeping the space feeling balanced.

Preservation involves maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight, dusting with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying traditional beeswax to nourish the timber.
