Today I came across this dining table…

It’s called the Maru dining table (by greentea design) and it’s made of solid 3″ thick reclaimed wood planks, over a 100 years old. I don’t know whether to classify it as old or new… I’m leaning towards new and modern because these pieces definitely show a sleek modern line and their Asian inspiration. They look great!

Another benefit is the fact that they are made from reclaimed wood so there are no additional trees being cut down for their production, so on top of being unique and beautiful, these tables are very green… and while they’re not the cheapest tables on the market, they’re not expensive either (especially considering how massive and sturdy they look) so maybe we’ll even see a few pop up in the design magazines. (just remember you saw them here first)!
