FAQs

Refectory tables originated in monasteries during the medieval period, where they were used by monks for communal dining in the refectory. By the seventeenth century, the form transitioned into grand domestic houses, evolving with more refined turned legs and stretchers.

Authentic period tables are constructed primarily from English oak using traditional joinery methods such as mortise and tenon joints secured with wooden pegs. Planks were hand-riven or sawn, resulting in characteristic surface textures and irregular widths.

Authentication involves examining tool marks, timber shrinkage, peg construction, and wear patterns. Genuine pieces exhibit hand-planed surfaces, historical oxidisation, and signs of structural settling that modern reproductions cannot replicate.

Juxtaposing historical timber with contemporary seating creates a balanced, layered aesthetic in a modern dining room. The rich texture and warm patina serve as a grounding anchor when paired with minimalist lighting and clean architectural lines.

Preservation requires maintaining stable indoor humidity levels away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber splitting. Regular dusting with a dry, soft cloth and occasional application of appropriate beeswax helps maintain the historic finish.
