English Natural Wood Table

The top was a tree not long ago, and it has kept its bark to prove it.

This natural wood table comes from England, United Kingdom, and is contemporary, in rustic wood. Country furniture made from thick slabs and split legs has a long tradition in rural Britain, where it was generally built for strength rather than polish. A heavy, irregular slab with its bark edge intact forms the top, dished in places and crossed by checks and cracks. It sits on a plank apron and four splayed, roughly shaped legs, their surfaces worn to a warm orange-brown. It is 24 inches long, 24 deep and 25 high.
