Special tables – From tree edge to tree root
Solid wood furniture is an optical highlight in every home, and especially special tables made of solid wood set accents in every room. In this blog article we take a look at four fascinating variants of dining tables and coffee tables: tree edge tables, tree slice tables, tables made of reclaimed wood, and root tables.
1. Tree edge tables – Natural beauty in the dining room
Tree edge tables, also known as live-edge tables, preserve the organic shape of the Live edge and bring the beauty of nature directly into your dining room. These tables are characterized by their irregular edges, which give the room a rustic yet elegant touch. A dining table with a tree edge is not only a functional piece of furniture but a statement for naturalness and authenticity.
