i like these bits of furniture

Orchard oak, sourced from Germany and USA...heavier thicker plainer oak than the big round 'distressed' provincial oak dining table we have, but I think they look nice.
I guess you have happy oak, distressed oak and tortured oak.
the big round distressed oak table is a big and lovely thing, for sure. I bought it because round table is harmony in China.
The hardest thing about harmony in terms of a big round oak table is ever finding a home you can put it in. Round tables are hard...but we started with harmony, with the round table...and so now the house conforms around it.
