With its elegant turned legs, molded apron, and long top measuring over two meters, it offers a particularly refined take on the traditional country table.

materials: the table is made of solid oak. The wood has a beautiful warm hue and pronounced grain, punctuated by the marks and irregularities acquired over time.

features: the base of this farmhouse table is distinguished by four turned legs joined in pairs by lower stretchers, while the apron and the edge of the tabletop are highlighted with moldings. A drawer is integrated into the front. At over two meters long, the table comfortably seats eight people. Its moderate depth gives it particularly elegant proportions and allows it to be easily incorporated despite its considerable length.

restoration: the tabletop was covered with a second tiled surface, which was removed to reveal the original solid oak top. The tabletop has also been grafted along its entire length to fill in gaps. The table has also been completely sanded and then protected with a clear matte varnish.

condition: the table is sturdy and stable on its legs. It shows signs of its previous life, particularly on the tabletop and corners, all visible in the photos.

dimensions: w206 x d69.5 x h76 cm. Height under the apron: 62 cm.
drawer: w46.5 x h8 cm.
