Dining tables of the "Deep Island" series: A fusion of craftsmanship and history
A dining table is not just a piece of furniture but also a place of gathering. It is where friends and family come together to spend time and create memories. However, the dining table from the "Deep Island" series made of recycled wood is not just an ordinary table but a work of art that combines history and craftsmanship.
The "Deep Island" series has become a bestseller in recent years. The tabletop is made from recycled wood from old houses on Java and Bali and has an impressive thickness of 9–10 cm. Due to the age of the wood, which ranges between 70 and 100 years, each table tells its own story and reflects the culture of the Javanese people. The dining table is not only solid but also durable and resilient... it is a dining table that future generations will remember us by.
There are two types of dining tables in the "Deep Island" series. The first option is a dining table with a completely closed solid wood tabletop without additional decorations. The second option is to equip the tabletop surface with individual glass inlays, which are handcrafted in freehand cutting. These glass inlays are selected proportionally to the size of the table and create a connection between the rustic look of the wood and a modern design element.
The half-moon frame is clearly the most popular in the "Deep Island" series. Additionally, we offer various table frames suitable for different interior styles. The table frames are available in brushed stainless steel and silk-matte lacquered raw steel in industrial design and perfectly match the design of the tabletop. Furthermore, there is the option of custom manufacturing to adapt the table to your individual needs. If you have questions about the possibilities of a special order, please feel free to contact us.
Each dining table of the "Deep Island" series is handcrafted to ensure the highest quality. Production is carried out exclusively by small family businesses on Java and Bali to support local craftsmanship and promote the communities on site.
Example: Dining Table from the "Deep Island" series in size 250 x 100 cm with glass inlays
Note: The reclaimed wood used comes from demolished houses and bridges on the islands of Java and Bali. The tabletops are prefabricated on site by a small family business and refurbished and sealed after arrival in our in-house workshop. Of course, attention is paid to the naturalness of the waxes used.
Of course, all dining tables, living room tables, and design tables offered by Tischonkel can be viewed in our showroom in Detern (East Frisia).
Care Instructions for Your Solid Wood Table – How to Keep It Beautiful for Life
A solid wood table is not an off-the-shelf piece of furniture. It is a piece of nature coming to your home – and that is why it needs special attention. Here we explain in detail and step by step how to care for your table, position it correctly, and protect it long-term from damage such as cracks, warping, or stains.
The following instructions apply to waxed, oiled, sealed (e.g., Teak-Shield) and lacquered surfaces. Since these surfaces are constructed differently, it is important to know how to treat each table optimally.
Why does solid wood need care at all?
How does wood react in your home?
Solid wood lives – even after processing. This means it absorbs moisture, releases it, and reacts to temperature fluctuations. This is what gives the material its beauty but can lead to problems in the wrong environment.
Wood is particularly sensitive to:
- too dry air
- too high or direct heat
- strong temperature fluctuations
- intense sunlight
You might know it from grandma’s old wooden doors: in summer they stuck, in winter they closed more easily. This basic principle also applies to your solid wood table, just in a more elegant form.
What values are ideal for your indoor climate?
To keep your table stable over time, we recommend a balanced indoor climate:
- Room temperature: approximately 18–22 °C
- Humidity: approximately 45–60 %
Within this range, the wood still works but within a normal, non-critical scope. Anything significantly warmer, colder, or drier causes unnecessary stress to the wood.
How do you properly care for oiled, waxed, or sealed surfaces?
What does an “open-pored” surface mean for your daily life?
Oiled, waxed, or sealed surfaces are open-pored. This means:
- The wood can continue to absorb and release moisture.
- The surface feels warm, natural, and lively.
- Small damages can often be repaired by yourself with proper care.
This openness is exactly why you need to be a bit more attentive with care than with a completely sealed lacquer surface.
How do you clean oiled or waxed surfaces daily?
Daily and regular cleaning is uncomplicated if you follow a few basic rules:
- Wipe the table with a soft cotton cloth.
- Use a slightly damp, never dripping wet cloth.
- Remove dust regularly to avoid fine scratches from dirt particles.
- Immediately absorb spilled liquids to prevent penetration into the wood.
- Do not use caustic or acidic cleaning agents.
Which cleaners should you definitely avoid?
- Microfiber cloths with coarse, abrasive texture
- Abrasive cleaners and scouring pads
- Glass cleaners or cleaners with alcohol
- Cleaners with solvents or strong surfactants
- "All-purpose cleaners" that strongly degrease fats and oils
How often do you need to re-treat – and how do you proceed?
Depending on use, we recommend re-oiling or waxing your table every 6–18 months. If the table is used intensively (e.g., as a family dining table), a shorter interval may be advisable.
Here is the ideal procedure for re-treatment:
- Thoroughly clean the tabletop from dust and dirt and let it dry completely.
- Apply a suitable wood oil or furniture wax thinly and evenly with a soft cloth.
- Let the care product penetrate for a few minutes.
- Carefully remove excess oil or wax with a fresh cotton cloth.
- Allow the surface to dry well for several hours, ideally overnight.
How do you properly care for a lacquered solid wood table?
A lacquered surface is very easy to care for in daily life if you observe these points:
- Use a soft, slightly damp cloth for cleaning.
- Wipe afterwards with a dry cloth to avoid water spots.
- Avoid sharp cleaning agents, solvents, or abrasive products.
What should you consider with a lacquered table?
Lacquer offers good protection – but not against everything. Especially keep an eye on the following points:
- Never place hot pots, pans, or casserole dishes directly on the table without coasters.
- Do not drag heavy or rough objects across the surface; lift them instead.
- Always use a cutting board when cutting.
What is the ideal location for your solid wood table?
Where should your table definitely not be placed?
Your new table prefers a somewhat calmer environment. A new environment can stress the wood – especially if there are temperature differences on and inside the solid wood top. In all these places, the wood is exposed to strong climate fluctuations:
- Direct sunlight: Heats the surface strongly, dries it out, and can promote cracks (e.g., conservatory, south side).
- Fireplaces and radiators: Cause uneven heating and dryness. Uneven tensions often lead to cracks.
- Underfloor heating: Allows very warm air to rise directly to the underside and creates tensions that can cause cracks.
- Dry winter air: Removes moisture and causes the wood to shrink.
What to do if something happens anyway?
The wood used for our tables has been carefully dried and seasoned. Usually, nothing will happen, but the above conditions can lead to problems.
Why are such damages not covered by warranty?
Such damages do not result from a product defect but from environmental influences that we as manufacturer or retailer cannot control. The wood simply reacts naturally to unnatural conditions.
Therefore, cracks caused by incorrect indoor climate, heat, dryness, or extreme location conditions are not covered by warranty.
How do you best protect your table permanently?
- Keep humidity in the range of 45–60 %.
- Avoid direct sunlight on the tabletop.
- Do not place the table directly next to fireplaces, stoves, or strong radiators.
- Avoid using underfloor heating beneath your table.
- Use coasters, placemats, and felt pads in daily use.
- Regularly care for the surface with suitable products.
We won’t leave you alone!
Even with the best care, wood remains a natural product. If you discover cracks, stains, or other damages, just contact us. We will help you with recommendations for care products, repair kits, and tips on location. This way, you will enjoy your solid wood table for a long time – whether waxed, oiled, or lacquered.
