Familia Farm Table
The Classic Farm Table with a Twist
Monk started building farm tables for families years ago. He thought it would be fun to join reclaimed tops with newly turned table legs underneath. The juxtaposition has a playful, inviting vibe that says we're all family here — even if we're totally different.
Legs painted in whatever color suits the room.

Every piece is built from solid hardwood, not veneer or engineered panel, and solid wood responds to the room it lives in. It expands slightly in humid months and contracts in dry ones. Our joinery is designed to allow that movement rather than fight it — breadboard ends, floating panels and bolt-on bases all exist for this reason. A hairline seasonal gap that opens and closes is the material behaving correctly.
Day to day. Wipe with a soft dry or barely damp cloth. Blot spills as they happen rather than letting them stand. Skip anything with ammonia, bleach, silicone or wax polish — silicone in particular builds a film that makes refinishing difficult later. Use trivets under hot dishes and something absorbent under anything wet or sweating.
The finish. Hardwax oil, not polyurethane. It sits in the wood rather than on top of it, so the surface still feels like wood and repairs invisibly — a scratch can be spot-treated without stripping the whole top. Refresh high-use areas with a light coat of hardwax oil when the surface starts to look thirsty, roughly every year or two on a dining table, less on a desk. We'll tell you exactly what we used on your piece.
Reclaimed and salvaged wood. Nail holes, checks, insect tracks, old bolt scars and color variation are the record of where the wood has already been. We stabilize anything structural and leave the rest. No two pieces are alike, and photographs of one build won't predict the exact character of yours.
Sun-tanned poplar is poplar left in the California sun until it turns honey and chocolate — a color change in the wood itself, not a stain. It will continue to deepen slightly for the first months in your home, then settle.
Steel bases. Blackened steel is a chemical patina, hand-finished and sealed. Raw sealed steel keeps the mill surface under a clear coat. Both wipe clean with a dry cloth. Avoid abrasives, which will cut through the seal.
Built to be repaired. Mortise and tenon joinery, bolt-on bases and an oil finish all mean this furniture can be taken apart, refinished and put back into service decades from now. That's the point. If something ever needs attention, contact us — we'd rather fix it than see it replaced.
