This beautiful hardwood table top is made from gorgeous, Grade-A solid Walnut hardwood. The tapered legs are turned by hand for a classic mid-century, rustic-modern style. The legs screw into metal plates underneath the table top for convenience of easy removal for storing/moving. The tabletop is slightly thinner at 7/8" (22mm) instead of a standard 1" (25mm) for a streamlined look and airy design. Details on finish and joinery below.

The process of preparing and laminating all these blocks is extremely labor intensive, making it difficult to profit from, but it is a labor of love for us. Seeing these reclaimed blocks of beautiful grade-A hardwood get turned into a one-of-a-kind tabletop makes it worth it. The "butcher-block" patterns created are not only incredibly gorgeous but also rarely seen affordably in table size. Built this way the tabletops are also exceptionally stable - unlike tables made from wider, longer boards that can twist, split and warp more easily with shifts in weather etc. Our tables are handmade one at a time from solid hardwoods that can last a lifetime and given a premium craftsman finish with a natural wood look that's very easy to maintain.

Letting the gorgeous natural material speak for itself and using clean lines in our designs makes our furniture look excellent in a wide variety of styles/contexts. It's also very easy to maintain as its a "living finish".
~
A living finish means that you can touch up the table as needed through its lifetime for any dings or scuffs. While our finish is a robust decking style finish, some marks in use are inevitable. A simple wipe on application commonly available Howard's "Restore a finish" can remove scuffs and marks instantly and be used anytime you want to refresh the table. Teak Oil is an alternative wipe-on, easy maintenance care solution as well. A living finish also has an organic, satin look where the wood looks natural and organic - not like its encased in plastic and glossy.

The table top and legs are made from solid wood - there's no plywood or fiberboard in our furniture anywhere. There's steel plates already attached to the table for you - so all you need to do is insert in the legs for an easy 60 second assembly. As our table tops are a natural material the grain and color varies, though that patchwork is unique and the inherent beauty of the piece. Our solid wood tapered legs are hand turned on a lathe in our shop one-at-a-time and also made from reclaimed wood that shows beautiful and unique character with natural grain patterns and color.

This item ships from Thailand for the time being. While we're still a US registered tax paying business with a warehouse in Portland, we are currently working from rural Thailand to support our aging family here in need for the time being. We've built a small temporary workshop on our families property and everything is still made by us just as it has always been and will always be.

Thank you so much for viewing our work and contact us anytime with any questions you might have. We may be able to do variations on designs we have in stock to meet specific needs - but we generally aren't able to make something that isn't directly related to products we are already doing.

SHIPPING:
*Please note - in regards to shipping price - we not only offer lower prices for solid walnut furniture than most other studios to make our products more accessible, we actually subsidize the shipping cost for you already as well. Typically the shipping prices we charge are already discounted by 30% or out of our end. Unfortunately the shipping companies often literally make more than we do off our own products. We're very committed to keeping our designs affordable - and while we know it's not cheap, know we're doing the absolute best we can to make them affordable and still be able to afford health insurance and such necessities on our end. We ship anywhere DHL services - which is most of the world. For multiple items the shipping discount is modest - this is because not only are we already subsidizing for you - but also because courier shipping calculates size and weight equally in cost. If you do want to order 3 or more pieces please feel free to contact us - depending on the items we may be able to arrange special packaging. 1-2 pieces the listing is accurate and there's no further discount we can offer.

RETURNS:
These are handmade, made to order items so generally we would just replace any item if there's an issues. That said - we would accept returns as we wouldn't want anyone to be unhappy with one of our pieces. However, there are some stipulations. The item must be returned to us in perfect condition. The original actual shipping amount would not be returned and additionally the buyer is required to pay for the shipping back to us. As such a return is not a ideal solution for buyer or seller. We are here to answer any question you might have though - so please ask and let us help you feel comfortable in your decision to order online.

This item ships in a double-thick corrugated box to get to you safely. Finally, while its extremely rare (due to the way we fill out the forms based on raw materials only) in the event that a customs duty is imposed as per standard practice it is the purchaser's responsibility to pay the fee. It varies for every country but generally in the event a fee is applied it should be small because again we only claim the value as the raw material.
