Rather than producing coffee tables in a set style, I look for interesting pieces of wood and other materials to make one off items. Chunky and solid, these reclaimed wood coffee tables are made entirely from kiln dried reclaimed wood and will last a lifetime. Being handmade and given the nature of their construction, each table is totally unique. They have been sanded to a smooth finish whilst leaving the interesting features in the wood, reminders of its previous use and signs of age. Unless specified they have had several coats of Danish oil to protect and enhance the natural grain.
Some of the tables on this page have been sold, contact me with your requirements if you would like me to build one in a particular style.
Oak coffee table
£1200
Description
Made from a huge slab of 50mm thick oak, this table is a bit of a beast. Constructed entirely from oak, the top was liberated from a reclamation yard in West Wales, where it had sat for many years.
The legs are old gnarly posts that once lined one of Salisbury’s many rivers and the frame is made from reclaimed joists from an old Welsh farmhouse. Chunky hand forged nails adorn the sides of the main cross piece.
Needless to say, this table is rather heavy.
Dimensions
- Height: 46cm
- Length: 100cm
- Depth: 60cm
Steel frame coffee table
£750
Description
Looking more like a suit of armour than a coffee table, this piece has a welded steel frame with a top made from reclaimed oak and teak inset into it. Building this was a labor of love and it really is as heavy as it looks.
The teak was part of a bridge in Wiltshire, the oak is of unknown origin.
I could reproduce this table frame in a different size if wanted, the wooden top on this particular table is unique though as I only had enough oak and teak for the one table. Another table could be made to your requirements, based on what wood is available to me at the time.
If required I could build a dining table in this style.
Dimensions
- Height: 46cm
- Length: 100cm
- Depth: 60cm
Slate and scaffold coffee table
£400
Description
Coffee table made out of reclaimed kiln dried scaffolding boards. The legs are oak posts from a Welsh farm. The slate was part of a fireplace surround from a Welsh farmhouse.
I have a limited amount of slate to make a similar table.
Dimensions
- Height: 44cm
- Length: 110cm
- Depth: 91cm
Floorboard, slate and pier coffee table
£450
Description
Reclaimed wood coffee table made out of floorboards reclaimed from a Somerset manor house and a piece of ornately engraved slate that was part of a fireplace surround from a Welsh cottage. The legs are oak posts from a Welsh farm and the frame is made from the deck from the old Weston-Super-Mare pier, salvaged after the 2008 fire.
Given the unique nature of the materials in this table, this is a ‘one of a kind’ table.
Dimensions

- Length: 107cm
- Depth: 64cm
Warehouse joist coffee table
£380
Description
Chunky coffee table made from joists reclaimed from an old warehouse on Bristol’s harbourside. The frame is made from 4 x 2″ beams that have been mortised into the legs (which were cut from an old gatepost). This is a very heavy table!

- Length 120cm
