Product description

Kitchen table, made to measure in-house, vintage style, the table top is made from a 100-year-old knotty floorboard with a thickness of 3.5 cm and the corresponding patina of the last 100 years. The base frame was made as requested and can be dismantled, old pine half-timbered beams from dismantling were used. Surface untreated. Further dimensions and variants on request. Lengths up to 4.5 m are available. Information about the table top: Pitch pine (from the English term pitch pine for the pitch pine, Latin Pinus rigida) refers to heavy pine woods rich in heartwood. The term does not refer to a specific botanical species, but is a collective term in the timber industry for the best quality of softwood (\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\"the hardest softwood in the world\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"), which is hardly available today. Some of this heartwood has annual rings less than 1 mm wide, is very rich in resin and is correspondingly heavy at approx. 710 g/dm³.

This quality of wood came from the southwest of the USA and Central America, especially Honduras (Honduras Pitch Pine) from very old and large trees that have now largely been felled. Pitchpine is primarily used to produce floorboards, wall and ceiling cladding. Since the wood was very often used as floorboards in buildings from the Wilhelminian era and the high-quality wood used at the time was rare, there is a market for old floorboards. Source: Wikipedia.
