Bearing the marks of its use in a workshop, it can now be repurposed as a console table or occasional table.

Materials: Made entirely of solid oak, this workbench features a thick top and a particularly robust frame. The wood displays a patina marked by time and use.

Features: This workbench retains its original screw vise as well as the holes, mortises, and marks left by its various uses. Its solid base is connected by a lower section that also provides storage space. Despite its considerable length, it is shallow and can be used as a console table, bathroom cabinet, or kitchen island.

Restoration: This antique workbench was completely degreased, sanded, treated against wood-boring insects, and then sanded again. It was intentionally left in its raw wood state to preserve the natural appearance of the oak and the many traces of its history.
