Spanish 19th Century Butcher’s Table from Catalonia

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
Large rustic bench from Spain, early 20th century, originally used as a butcher’s table for processing swine. If one can overlook the macabre history of the piece, there is organic beauty in the solid plank from a tree trunk, showing incredible, natural grain pattern. Human-made patina by way of the chop marks, gives further texture over the crevices of dry heartwood. Four primitive legs go from the table surface to the ground to offer structural stability and visual interest to the asymmetric form. From urban zen to country house, there is so much potential for this piece to be a bench or an occasional table in any setting. Please view the detailed images.
