Since the Middle Ages, the profession of butcher has been one of the most respected and lucrative occupations. This was often reflected in their high-quality furniture. Even back then, the first butcher’s blocks were made with a top consisting of many individual squared pieces of hardwood set on edge in a frame to ensure a work surface that was as robust as possible. The principle remains the same to this day.
This freestanding model from the middle of the 20th century still bears witness to the quality of these rare pieces. After decades of use, the worktable now shines in new splendour following its refurbishment. Placed in a kitchen, it is both practical and of enormous decorative value.
Restored ready to use (top glued out in places; surface sanded without destroying the original patina and then resealed; new metal castors fitted in an industrial look).
The piece of furniture can be transported in 2 parts (table top and base).
