FAQs

These tables are characterised by the use of natural, unaltered tree roots or stumps as structural bases combined with stone or slate surfaces, reflecting a tradition of rustic, utilitarian craftsmanship.

Authentic period pieces typically utilise native hardwoods such as oak, chestnut, or pine for the organic base, paired with locally quarried natural stone or slate for the top.

Authentication relies on examining the natural patination of the wood, traditional joinery methods where the top meets the base, and the presence of hand-cut slate or stone wear consistent with age.

Such pieces serve as sculptural accents in modern schemes, contrasting clean architectural lines with organic textures and natural materials.

Maintenance involves dusting the wood with a dry cloth, treating the timber periodically with neutral beeswax, and cleaning the slate surface with a damp, lint-free cloth without harsh chemicals.
