Helping to make your table your very own...
Below are some of the variations you should consider when thinking about a custom made table.
A Vintage Wren's tables are crafted in the authentic old world style, each piece is created by the hands of the artist.
Filled with time honored, traditional woodworking technique of all wood joinery, each tenon is hand fit within its corresponding mortise and finished with a hardwood peg, the apron and the legs have become one. Each board on the table top is hand selected and joined together to make the field of the table.
Our tables are available in Eastern White Pine , Red Oak, Cherry and a variety of other hardwoods, varying textures, the option of Company Board extensions, stain and paint colors of your choice and a variety of leg styles to choose from.
Our work is truly custom so dimensions are made to your specifications.

Hand Planed Cherry
Our Hand Planed Cherry tops are beautifully hand worked in the fashion of old world craftsmanship, giving the look of an antique
farm table,with slight undulations adding character and charm.
Cherry is best left natural (no stain) with an oil finish (protective topcoat) it starts out fairly light colored but will naturally darken into a rich red brown color,
this happens when it is exposed to air and light it starts to oxidize, changing it molecular structure causing it to reflect light differently.
We will stain Cherry in select red/brown colors only. It will not stay light, as noted above.
Samples below are for reference only
Grain patterns will vary from this picture.
Cherry without stain naturally darkens with age

Company Board Extensions
Our Company Board Extensions are traditional from the 1700's, before a center leaf and its working mechanism were invented, besides the historical
factor we feel they are more in keeping with the aesthetics of the refined rustic tables which we create.
The extensions are inserted into the two end aprons on hardwood rails. The notches are covered with a hinged faux drawer front when not in use.
Standard extensions are 12" or 14" each, for an additional 24" or 28" added to the length of the table.
Custom made just for your family
All of our custom made tables comes with a personalized tag, with your family name hand written on it.
Justin hand engraves his signature and date of completion on each table's underside.
