Large Kauri dining table made of root wood and tree trunk wood
I crafted this large dining table measuring 330 x 120 cm in my workshop according to the customer's specifications from a 4543-year-old original kauri tree trunk slab with burl wood, which has grown artistically in one piece. The old kauri tree with its original tree edges can be clearly seen in the solid tabletop of this exclusive real wood table.
Rare individual pieces are wooden tables where the natural growth of the tabletop changes from the root to the tree trunk.
The lower section of the table reveals the typical root growth with its beautiful grain. This grows in all directions, creating a unique and artistic natural spectacle. I deliberately left the natural tree edges as natural as they grew. This emphasizes the uniqueness of this exclusive dining table with its fascinating real wood tabletop.
I have finished the tabletop with a high-quality surface treatment, making it resistant to all types of moisture. There will be no moisture stains, and the advantage for you is that you will not need to maintain the dining table.
As shown here, I left the bark growth of the root in its original state and poured high-quality epoxy resin over it. In some areas, the natural resin of the kauri tree can be seen, which hardens into golden-colored amber over the course of millennia. This unique and natural process is one of the special quality features that only prehistoric kauri wood offers. Equipped with this feature, real kauri wood tables offer a touch of luxury and exclusivity with a unique, one-of-a-kind character. Exclusive luxury tables, as I define them.
The individual natural features of this unique piece have been crafted by hand with great attention to detail. The gnarled wood of the root requires a lot of manual work and cannot be treated like a mass-produced product. I filled the transitions from the beautiful tree edges to the large, naturally grown openings in the tabletop with epoxy resin and shaped the edges organically in accordance with the natural course of the tree edges.
The result is an exclusive real wood table with the unique number 113 and a quality product that retains its value and has special characteristics.
The tree trunk wood can be seen at the rear of the tabletop. The grain becomes calmer and, with its honey-gold color, also has a special appeal here, contributing to the elegant living environment. Grown in one piece, large kauri tabletops made of root wood and tree trunk wood offer unique natural characteristics and look like works of natural art.
