Wood
Oak Farm Table
France, 20th Century
$1,495
Sylvie spotted this one in Villeneuve-lès-Avignon with a third-generation dealer she trusts. A 19th-century farm table, originally from the Cévennes, it was built for daily work and meals in a French farmhouse. The wide quarter sawn plank top rests on squared and 'octagonalized' legs joined with low stretchers, showing the kind of wear that only comes from generations of use. Sylvie imagines it now as the anchor of a dining room, or stretched along a hallway wall as a console with baskets tucked beneath. It has one small drawer at one end.
Dimensions:
30.5" H x 78" W x 27.5" D
Material:
Oak Wood
Notes from Sylvie:
This antique piece wears its history beautifully. It has subtly greyed with age and has a small gap between the very wide boards. Past woodworm holes, repairs, cracks, patina, and stains all add to its character.
