With help from a European antiques dealer, we've unearthed a limited cache of one-of-a-kind brickmaker's tables
Originally a pallet used to cut, cool and transport bricks 100 years ago in a Belgian brickworks
Tabletop's coarse, bolted planks are rugged Northern European azobe wood
Rough-hewn pallet top has been cleaned, yet bears the nicks of time and the patina of use, including watermarks
Framed by a hand-welded steel base with a distressed finish sealed for longevity
No two tables are exactly alike
Approximately 200 lbs.
This item is an original and quantities are limited
Dimensions (approximately): 59"L x 43"W x 17"H
