Hickory Dovetail Batten Desk
Material: Hickory, Soft maple legs
Finish: Hard-wax oil
About the piece:
Dovetail batten tables were common peasant furniture during the 19th century. However, their clean lines, thoughtful construction, and unique octagonally tapered legs make them somewhat of a modern design (put another way…timeless!). The simple construction with the wide grain top allows the wood itself to be at the forefront of the celebration of the piece.
