A brief history of the farmhouse table
A centerpiece of rural life in the 19th century, the farmhouse table was crafted to last for generations and host large peasant gatherings. It is characterized by its thick solid wood top, often marked by the passage of time, and its sturdy base, which may or may not be connected by a stretcher or crossbar. Known as a "refectory table" or "kitchen table," it was designed to withstand daily chores as well as family banquets.
