701 Original Ash dining table

This striking "701 Original" dining table is a masterclass in modern rustic design, handcrafted in our own workshop using locally sourced British ash. The top is composed of substantial, wide boards that showcase the wood's distinctive pale complexion and celebrated olive-hued grain, providing a bright and contemporary alternative to traditional oak. Our resident carpenter has carefully worked the timber to retain its natural "live edge" character, ensuring that the organic flow of the original tree remains a central feature of the finished piece.

The table is supported by a robust, architectural base—hand-built on-site—which provides a sturdy foundation for the heavy ash top while maintaining a clean, uncluttered silhouette. This marriage of raw natural material and precise craftsmanship results in a piece that feels both grounded and sophisticated, perfectly suited to a large farmhouse kitchen or a minimalist open-plan dining space. By using timber cut from the local landscape, we have ensured that each table possesses its own unique fingerprint, from the subtle fluctuations in colour to the intricate figuring of the grain.
