The body is reclaimed antique mahogany, approximately 30 mm thick.
The timber was a mahogany workshop cutting table from Henry Swann Gentlemen’s Outfitter and Tailor in Nottingham. The business traded from 1907 to 2017 and it is believed the mahogany table was one of the original fittings. It is probably over 150 years old and bears all the marks from decades of trade. We could find no sign of a board joint and the top was over 700 mm wide. After much consideration we decided to leave the original scratches, marks and holes as there is so much history to this piece of wood.
£1,250
