The reality is that building with solid wood means that we are building with a medium that is susceptible to small changes over time as the wood acclimates to its environment. Small splits and subtle wood movement/warping have the potential to occur.
We build our custom furniture using premium American quarter sawn white oak and black walnut. Our wood is sourced as locally and as sustainably as possible.
Staying true to our name "Relic" our tables are built to last. Each table is constructed using premium hardwoods. We use a plant based hardwax oil that is superior in durability, based on natural ingredients, contains no solvents, and is 0% VOC. Our tables have great wear, water, and heat resistance while also maintaining the beautiful natural look and feel of the wood.

Generally tables are delivered in two parts (the top and the base) and then quickly assembled once inside. Standard dining table height (when in its regular position) is approximately 30" tall therefore when carried sideways it requires all doors, hallways, and anything in its delivery path from outside all the way to where its going to be an absolute minimum of 31".
Please take the time to visualize the delivery path and measure anything in question prior to ordering. Also consider elevators, stairs, tight turns, railings, kitchen islands, and anything else that may complicate things. If there are more than 6 consecutive steps in the delivery path it is necessary to contact us prior to placing your order. We want the delivery to be as smooth and easy as you do so if there is any question or doubt at all please communicate it with us when ordering. If notified in advance we have a significantly better chance at being able to accommodate a tricky delivery situation. You, the client are ultimately responsible for ensuring that your order will fit throughout the entire delivery path from outside to its final destination inside.
In the event that our delivery team is unable to deliver your order fully to its location in your home or business due to logistical issues (walls, railings, tight turns, stairs, etc.) the undeliverable portion of your order will return to our location. You will have one week to select a new location for delivery and will incur a second delivery charge for the additional delivery. There will be no refunds given due to unexpected logistical issues with the delivery.
If there is any question or concern whatsoever please do not hesitate to contact us, we are happy to assist.
We want you to be nothing less than thrilled with your order however due to the unique nature of custom furniture that is built to order, all sales are final. If there is an issue with your order due to a craftsmanship error we will resolve free of charge within one calendar year from time of purchase. Visual variations within the wood from piece to piece are to be expected and embraced as part of what makes each truly unique. Color samples are intended only to be approximate references for color, grain type, and feel.
Breadboard ends are boards that run perpendicular on either end of the table top. Traditionally they are used to help stabilize table tops from warping but with modern advances and proper precautions taken it has become a mere choice of visual preference to have them or to go with boards running the full length end to end.
