Oxford Wood Recycling
Sadly the top is only oak veneer, but it's been well maintained and is in a tidy condition, whilst it's legs are the real deal and could easily be removed if you wanted to make your own top.
Size is shown in the accompanying pictures, and we are offering it for £30.
Apparently it was made in Belgium...

There are also some rather interesting chunks of oak here for your viewing pleasure, that would be perfect for anyone wishing to use resin in their next coffee table or hall table, and plenty of smaller off-cuts for chopping boards, woodturning and smaller craft projects.
Want to see more of the hardwoods we stock? Then you'd best pop in to visit 🙂
