Made to order by our workshop, this is a large 12-seater 18th-century French Provincial Louis XVI style solid oak farmhouse table of simple proportions. It stands on tapering, square-section legs, and the wide top is fitted with 'bread ends'.
Newly hand-built in our workshop as an exact copy of an 18th-century Loire Valley table, the surfaces are hand-planed and assembled using traditional joints, reinforced by wooden pegs. The timbers are given several washes of natural pigment stain, with a cut-back between each stain, this technique revealing the 'ridges and troughs' of the hand-planed surfaces. The table is sealed with several coats of a durable oil-based varnish, then waxed and buffed for a glowing wax finish. Please note the rich grain of the European-grown French oak timbers.
Please feel free to enquire with any specific requests for dimensions, tonality of timber colour and finish.
Condition report: Newly constructed, with options for customers' requests.
Please note that the Price varies depending on the size.
