Oak dining table crafted from locally sourced oak. The table top is hollow, like an aeroplane wing, to reduce weight and increase rigidity, yet retains the durability expected from oak. 280 metres of laminations, cut on the quarter from 80mm oak, were used in the making of this table.
Daniel specialises in heirloom pieces – classic and timeless – to hand down through generations: pieces of sculpture for use in everyday life – practical, comfortable, and stunningly beautiful.
Using a blend of traditional and innovative techniques, Daniel works solo and without the aid of computers, preferring to ‘feel’ his way into the timber he is so passionate about. With his small mobile sawmill, Daniel can create his pieces almost exclusively from local wood in a sensitive and sustainable way.
