This table is made entirely from Ethically sourced Local Redwood Timber. The wood has been kiln dried which makes it very solid and perfect to make furniture with. This results in a piece which is known for it's sturdiness, it's chunky & rustic look and it's lovely grain and colour.
I have used carefully selected Kiln Dried Timber planks of varying sizes here. When the table has been finished, the grain and colour really shine through.
This table is very sturdy and moderately heavy (Approx 15kg's).
The table may move ever so slightly over it's years too. This is due to the temperature changes in your home and thus it may create very slight cracks and stretches etc. This is perfectly natural and only adds to the rustic charm of this kind of piece. I really like the way wood moves over time and creates a character of it's own. In this regard, each and every table is going to be unique.
The legs on this table are fixed, as is the shelf.
This console table has been distressed and aged and features authentic wear marks such as knocks, dings, scrapes and even nail and screw thread marks!! It looks like it been in this world for generations!
It is then finished off by being waxed all over to treat and protect the wood.
I hope you all like it! It's fun to build.

Simply brush the wax on with a large paintbrush and wipe the excess off straight away before it dries fully to leave a perfect finish.
