Een blog, speciaal begonnen om de bouw en het installeren van een houten keuken te documenteren. Maar misschien komt er ook wel eens iets anders voorbij.
The wood is indeed unsteamed. Maybe it would have been better, because I had to cope with some extensive mildew-like stains in the wood. Of course, steaming tends to muddy the color of walnut, which is a pitty. European walnut is very lively colored of itself. Some of the stains are still there, but I'm slowly getting used to it. It's all about using the wood as it is, faults and beauty alike.

Beautiful! Congratulations.
ReplyDeleteHow did you attach the top to the base?
Lots of screws!

Hi Kees
ReplyDeleteWe've crossed paths on SMC. Beautiful table! I love the design. Is the walnut unsteamed? Either way, it looks great!
