The Painswick Oak Coffee Table

Handmade using locally and responsibly sourced barn-dried Oak from Painswick, Gloucestershire. The wood used came from a gorgeous Oak aged at circa 800 years old, which sadly had to be felled in 2018 for safety reasons after a major limb failed and fell on a building!

By applying the precept of the famous architect Antoni Gaudí that “there are no straight lines or sharp corners in nature” the timber has not been left as it was sawn, but bevelled and rounded so the edges of the table are smooth to touch and looks at peace, as one piece - giving the rustic country style a more a more refined, contemporary finish.

This table has been treated with a low-VOC rot and insect protection, then finished with several coats of non-toxic spirit and linseed oil before applying a final layer of Earthborn furniture wax for a protective satin and environmentally conscious finish that showcases the natural beauty of the grain. The legs are handmade in Wiltshire by thehairpinlegco using powder-coated carbon steel and fitted with professional 1” stainless steel screws offering genuinely superior strength.
