What are the console tables made from?
Solid wood — often a single continuous slab for the top — with no veneer or particleboard anywhere in the piece. The grain, knots, and natural edge stay part of the table, and because the top is solid, it can be re-sanded and re-oiled for decades.
Is the live edge fragile?
No — the edge is solid teak like the rest of the slab, sanded smooth and sealed with the same oil. It shrugs off keys and bags; it simply keeps the tree's outline instead of a ruler's. Any scuff it does pick up spot-sands out at home.
Do you build to fit narrow hallways?
Consoles are made to order, so length and depth adjust to your hallway or entry. A narrow ten-inch depth for tight halls is one of our most common builds — measure the walkway you need to keep clear, and we size the table to what remains.
Will I need to assemble it?
Most consoles arrive assembled — it comes off the truck as a table. Designs with sculptural bases ship in two parts that join with pre-fitted bolts: a ten-minute job for one person with the included key, no diagrams to decode.
What care does a console need?
Dust with a soft cloth and wipe up water from vases and wet umbrellas promptly. An annual oiling — twenty minutes with a rag — keeps the top ready for the keys, mail, and hands it greets daily. That small renewal is why the finish never needs a refinisher.
How is a console packed?
Every console is made to order and packed in a fitted crate or double-walled carton with rigid corner guards. Tracking is emailed the day it ships — photograph the packaging on arrival before signing, and if anything went wrong in transit, we make it right.
