With its workmanlike design and warm natural finish, this vintage wooden table makes a striking Industrial accent. Built in Belgium in the 20th century, this piece would have originally been used as a carpenter’s work bench; the impressive metal vises on the side and end of the table would have served to hold planks of wood steady. A lower shelf offers space for nails and bolts, or any essential odds and ends. The asymmetrical yet carefully equilibrated silhouette and the large dovetail joints which adorn the edges of the tabletop speak to the consummate craftsmanship and care with which this piece was made.
