Our ‘Study’ table was a chance for us to put all of our skills to the test - from our work with salvaged slab wood, to creating a design using traditional woodworking techniques and joinery with a minimalist modern aesthetic, all while accommodating a solid wood design. This project was an absolute thrill to see come to life! A set of figured bookmatched claro walnut slabs were the chosen material, inverted and joined seamlessly at the sapwood to create a blonde-colored stripe at the center of the tabletop. A rigid rectangular trestle base adds a contrasting and functional feature, allowing roomy leg space on the table sides. This particular table in the example images was designed to fit in a library study, but can be modified for use as a dining table or to serve other table functions.
The functionality of an oval-shaped dining table combines the linear simplicity of a rectangular top with the intimacy and comfort of a round one, occupying less space. The curved edges can also be more suitable for small spaces allowing more space to move around the table. A half-rounded edge compliments the smooth oval tabletop shape.
This project was a collaboration with Shawback Design from inception to completion. Shawback design is a full service interior design firm serving Northern California, dedicated to every stage of the home build process: from sourcing land to finding the perfect architectural partner, to committing equally to process and style, to offering a complete turn-key experience on completion.

ECO-FRIENDLY HARDWAX OIL FINISH | Our preferred finishing method and product, made from environmentally-friendly components for eco-conscious customers. Osmo Polyx Oil is derived from natural plant oils and waxes, providing a hard-wearing and protective surface that is resistant to common liquid spills. The finish maintains the natural look and feel of the wood, all while offering protection and durability. One major advantage of hardwax oil is that it’s incredibly easy to repair/maintain, and in the event that minor signs of use occur the finish can be spot repaired with no overlap marks. With Osmo's maintenance liquid wax cleaner it's simple and quick to bring the finish "back to life" (products can be found here: Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner and here: Osmo Hardwax Oil Finish). To avoid minor signs of use, we recommend using coasters under serveware containing hot or cold liquids as well as cleaning up spills so as to not leave any moisture to set in over long periods that can cause spots or rings to occur to maintain the condition of the wood. We are ever-committed to reducing the amount of VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) we emit during our production process for environmentally conscious reasons, and are also trying to reduce the amount of toxins that our crew is exposed to for health safety precautions. Additionally, the hardwax-oil is a rub-on application (vs. other harsher methods such as spray-on which causes the finish to become airborne), and can be continuously DIY applied to refresh the wood on your table.
COST | $0 (included in pricing)
Please note, with ANY finish, taking certain protective precautions will reduce the risk of causing damage to the finish/wood. Here is a link to some suggestions/guidelines that will help maintain the longevity of your table's finish: http://www.mezworks.com/care/

For use as a dining or kitchen table: If you are unsure of the exact dimensions your needs require, please consider the following basic guidelines:
Provide each guest 24-30 inches of space at the dining table (chairs range from apprx 16-20" and require at least 6" of space on each side to allow guests to seat comfortably)
Add an extra 12 inches at each end for those seated at the head and foot of the table
Allow for at least 36 inches between the dining table and any walls or other furniture
