Description

A very charming farmhouse table in elm with original three board planked top and substantial original elm frame all with peg joints and having a beautiful patina and natural colour. Quite primitive in form and very attractive, heavy, level and robust. Natural knocks and old losses to the feet, wear to the central stretcher and part of one long edge of the table is a little ragged having had woodworm in the past – but is completely solid and hard with no flaking as this was treated many decades ago and there is no live worm in the table now.

.

Sold here with a matching pair of late Victorian bench seats in oak. One a little lighter than the other where it has been closest to a window. Again peg jointed and with very thick single board planked oak tops, well turned legs. Both stools are solid and heavy with no movement and are of a good size.

.

The table would also work well with Windsor chairs or rush seated chairs.

.

This is a really lovely antique dining set which look great together and would work equally well in a traditional farmhouse kitchen, loft apartment, or modern setting. The stools push under the table when not in use.

.

The table dates from c. 1780 and the stools from c. 1900

.

The table and bench seats can be purchased separately – please contact me for prices.

Eighteenth-century farmhouse tables and benches were utilitarian pieces crafted for rural kitchens and dining halls, built from sturdy regional timbers like elm and oak to withstand daily domestic use.

These pieces typically utilized native hardwoods such as elm for table tops due to its resistance to splitting, and oak for structural framing and legs, joined using traditional mortise and tenon joints secured with wooden pegs.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-planed surface textures, natural patination, visible peg joints, shrinkage cracks, and tool marks consistent with eighteenth-century hand-tool woodworking.

Pair the natural timber textures with minimalist contemporary seating or sleek lighting to create a balanced contrast between old-world craftsmanship and modern design.

Maintain antique timber by avoiding direct sunlight and excessive humidity fluctuations, applying natural beeswax periodically to nourish the wood without sealing the historic surface.
