FAQs

Eighteenth-century farmhouse tables were utility-focused dining pieces crafted in rural Europe, designed for central daily use in domestic kitchens. They typically feature sturdy plank tops, heavy aprons, end drawers for utensil storage, and lower stretchers to reinforce the leg structure.

These tables were constructed using locally available native hardwoods such as chestnut, oak, and elm. Cabinetmakers employed mortise and tenon joints held with wooden dowel pegs, allowing the timber to expand and contract naturally without structural failure.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of age including hand-planed top surfaces, slight timber shrinkage around joints, hand-forged nails or ironwork, and uneven oxidation where the wood has aged naturally over centuries.

A historical timber table creates visual grounding in contemporary spaces when paired with mid-century or modern dining chairs. Placing the piece in a modern open-plan kitchen provides a textural contrast against clean architectural lines and slick kitchen cabinetry.

Maintain the timber by applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to protect the surface patination. Spills should be wiped immediately with a slightly damp cloth, and the table should be kept away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking.
