Natural Reclaimed Coastal Wood Tabletop & Chairs

Natural reclaimed wood, particularly from coastal areas, adds a unique touch of history & character to furniture. These salvaged timbers, often boasting a distinctive patina developed through years of exposure to sun, salt, and wind, become stunning dining tables with a story to tell.

Our reclaimed wood tables & chairs begin their journey with hand-selected coastal wood collected from sources such as old boats, piers or seaside buildings, which then undergoes careful processing to remove impurities. Depending on the condition, we may apply stabilisation treatments like epoxy resin injections or controlled drying techniques to prevent cracking or warping. However, harsh chemicals or abrasive treatments are always avoided to maintain the natural wood grain & patina. 

After cleaning and treatment, the wood is cut into planks using specialised equipment. These individual planks are then joined together using techniques like finger jointing or edge glueing to create the desired tabletop size. For the chairs, we employ joinery techniques such as  dowels, mortise and tenon joints or finger joints to assemble individual pieces.

Finally, a protective finish is meticulously applied to preserve the wood's rich history, enhancing its appeal and offering resistance to stains, scratches, and daily wear. The result is a durable and visually appealing dining table and dining chairs that seamlessly combine coastal allure with rustic aesthetics.

Key Benefits

• Unique Character: Each table tells a unique story, with natural imperfections, knots, and slight variations, preserving the authentic character and history of the reclaimed wood, ensuring each table is a one-of-a-kind piece, adding individual charm to your home.
• Inherently Durable: Coastal reclaimed wood often comprises dense hardwoods like teak or driftwood, boasting high density & hardness, making it exceptionally durable & resistant to minor scratches, dents, and everyday wear & tear.
• Sustainable Option: Opting for reclaimed wood not only embodies an eco-conscious choice but also actively contributes to environmental conservation. By repurposing materials from structures like old boats, piers, or seaside buildings, the demand for new timber is significantly reduced.
• Natural Beauty: Reclaimed coastal wood boasts rich variations in colour & grain patterns, influenced by years of exposure to sun, salt & wind. This creates a distinctive patina that tells a story of its past life.
• Effortless Maintenance: The applied protective lacquer not only enhances the visual appeal of the reclaimed coastal wood but also simplifies maintenance. A quick wipe with a damp cloth easily removes dust and spills, ensuring your dining table stays pristine with minimal effort.

Care Guide

• Regular Dusting: Regularly dust your table & chairs with a soft, dry cloth to remove everyday dust and debris. Avoid using abrasive cloths or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the wood's surface.
• Minor Spills: Address spills and stains promptly. Blot up liquids with a clean, absorbent cloth. Never use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or furniture polish, as they can damage the finish and patina.
• Stubborn Stains: Use a gentle, natural cleaning solution like a mixture of warm water and a few drops of mild dish soap. Apply the solution to a damp cloth, wring it out well to avoid excess moisture, and wipe down the affected area. Dry thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth.
• Protect from Heat and Moisture: Despite the clear protective lacquer on your reclaimed wood dining table & chairs, we recommend using coasters or trivets for hot dishes and drinks to safeguard it from potential heat damage and water rings. This simple step contributes to maintaining the dining set's pristine surfaces over the years.

Sizing Guide

Chair Spacing: Maintain a space of at least 15cm between dining chairs to prevent overcrowding. Adequate spacing allows diners to move in and out of their seats easily, promoting a more enjoyable and functional dining experience. Consider the overall dimensions of the dining area when determining the optimal chair spacing.

Space to Move: Leave around 60cm between the chair back and your wall. This allows you and your guests to sit comfortably and manoeuvre without feeling cramped. Proper proximity ensures a seamless dining experience, allowing people to access their seats with ease.

Table Shape: For long rooms and open spaces, rectangular or oval tables often are the most natural fit, maximising space utilisation and creating a balanced look. Round or square tables can also work if you want to leave extra room for additional furniture pieces to complement your dining area. For smaller dining areas, round or square tables are often the ideal choice, promoting conversation and creating a sense of intimacy.

Number of Chairs: Assess the available space around the dining table to determine the practical number of chairs that can comfortably fit. Consider the table's size, shape, and room dimensions to ensure adequate spacing between chairs for both visual appeal and ease of movement. Below is a general guide, but these are flexible dependent on the chair size and desired level of comfort:

Round Tables

• 60cm-80cm: 2 People
• 90cm-110cm: 4 People
• 120cm-150cm: 4-6 People
