Corner Bar large black satin ash table

*Please note that as every table is handmade to order, delivery will be in 12-14 weeks*

Made to last a lifetime, in a black satin finish that’s exclusively available at Tate, this large black ash dining table is hand-crafted using wood sourced locally, from naturally felled trees. On each table there’s a stamp of the GPS coordinates of where the actual tree that made your table once stood, so you can look up (or visit) the exact place where it all began.

Softly rounded square legs echo the curved edges of the rectangular table’s top, for an elegant symmetry of design that’ll fit into both modern and traditional home décor environments. At 2.4 metres long, there’s plenty of room for six to eight people, and with a height of 76 cm, it’s designed to be accessible for wheelchair users. The table is a generous 90 cm wide, but its slim appearance means it’ll look just as good in your kitchen, lounge, dining room or office as it does in The Corner café at Tate Modern.

The table is made by Goldfinger, an award-winning social enterprise that combines high-end design with sustainability and community. Based in Trellick Tower, North Kensington, every item in the collection is made from repurposed wood, sustainably sourced from trees felled locally, within London and the surrounding areas. Over 5000 mature trees fall each year due to weather-related incidents, disease, or urban development, and Goldfinger use the wood from trees like these to create their hand-crafted furniture and homeware products.

Their team of expert craftspeople use traditional tools and joinery techniques to create pieces designed to last a lifetime. They also run a teaching academy, where they share these skills to promote sustainable work practices for the future. Their profits are poured back into their social impact projects, providing employment and training, fighting social isolation, and preserving the art of quality joinery. The Corner cafe collection was collaboratively designed by Goldfinger, Tate, and Holland Harvey.
