The Redemption Table

As it was being built this table was affectionately referred to as the redemption table. During the Derecho last year a massive cherry tree fell through the roof and into the dining area of this client’s home. The client and his family decided to salvage the wood and have this table made from it. 

This hardwood cherry harvest table features breadboard ends, true mortise and tenon joints with wood dowel pins, and a satin polyurethane finish. Without extensions the table starts at 7ft long by 3.5ft wide. With two 18in extensions the table reaches a mammoth 10ft long.

The name Redemption truly encompasses the nature of this table. The tree that destroyed part of the house was redeemed and made into this gorgeously functional work of art. No doubt it will be passed on as a memorable heirloom in the family for generations to come.
