Some tables impress with their age, others with their craftsmanship — this one does both. Carved in the 19th century from rich cherry wood, its top is a single, uninterrupted slab. No planks, no seams, just one monumental piece of wood that has survived intact for more than a century. That kind of construction is almost unheard of today. The broad trestle base recalls the refectories of old monasteries, where monks gathered for meals and ritual, while the carved supports and stretcher bar show a craftsman’s skills. Sylvie imagines it now in a dining room glowing with mismatched candles, built for the kind of long evenings that stretch as endlessly as the grain itself.
