Found in a field next to a garage near a creek, under some destroyed wooden doors, was this metal worn out base.  The grass was over-grown and partially hiding this base.  The owner was preparing to clear out the area and toss a lot of the stuff out.  Then a solid oak back-splash of a retail store display rack was destined for the trash.  The third item of this new table was a discarded old window frame.  The metal base was sanded, rust removed and treated and the silver and black patina was left alone.  The oak display rack was dismantled, cut into measurable slats and spacers, then attached together after it was sanded and stained.  The added wood-trimmed design on each alternating corner of the table was the final touch which came from a weathered and discarded outdoor window frame.  The results...a very heavy and eclectic awesome one-of-a-kind coffee table.  Can be used in a contemporary setting, a chic traditional arrangement, a mission or country cabin look.  Nice!

  

                

                    

             

                                             Excellent table for a sitting area in a coffee shop!

I was first thrown away.  My owner then decided to take me to a second hand store.  There I was purchased, taken to a shop and repaired.  First, they removed the damaged grapes I had stranded on my metal vines.  Many were missing.  Some clumps were poorly attached.  Once removed, I look so much nicer.  They also re-worked my display top.  It is so much nicer now.  Then they finished straightening my metal grape vine apron.  It looks like I am a brand new display table.  I was saved form a landfill and can now go help adorn someones home or business.

 

          

A wonderful plant stand for a much needed boost to an ugly corner in the room.  Maybe this piece would be best placed in a retail store with special items featured on and around its beauty!  It can become an excellent sign holder for a vignette that features a new product line of introductions.  Good ideas!

100% Re-Claimed Display Table...Butcher Block With Iron Base

Display Table

$99.

F.O.B. The Dalles, Oregon

SOLD

A nearly destroyed butcher block square was stacked in some storage stuff of a condemned building.  The square wood block was discovered during a walk-through to check things out.  Meanwhile, a closely guarded metal scrolled plant stand was waiting for a new home while it was being transported during a move.  Both items came together to make this tall 37" display table.

With a refinished wood top, sealed nicely and attached with re-purposed hardware to secure the metal base; this cool table became a very nice display piece.  Perfect for a hallway, entryway, a corner in the dinning room or even a boutique retail shop...this display table is 're-claimed' with a lot of style.

 

 

                                

Great Piece!

It is small enough to be used almost anywhere.  It is cool enough to be used almost anywhere.  It would work perfect for a commercial application.  It has too much style to be ignored!  Truly a very nice 'one-of-a-kind' piece of furniture.  What a great piece!

Re-Claimed Sofa Table...Glass And Brass Wood Bin

Sofa Table

$269.

F.O.B. The Dalles, Oregon

SOLD

In a second hand store, buried beneath a pile of rubble, was this discarded brass wood bin.  It was located in a tightly arranged isle for its display spot, visible, but obscure.  The glass top was a discarded 'unwanted' piece stored in a cardboard box hidden in storage above a furniture store.  The date on the shipping box showed the 70's.  It may have been a factory sent replacement top for one that was broken some years ago.  It obviously was no longer needed.

Both cleaned up pretty well.  Turning the wood bin on its side provided the perfect base for this discarded glass top.  The brass wood bin has been used heavily in its past and sports some very cool wear lines!  It has some very nice riveted brads located on the belly of the bin to go with all four of its remaining brass legs.  The handle is in great condition!  It gathers a lot of wonderful comments in the showroom.

  

          

Great Idea!

Use this sofa table in your food establishment where your recycling station is located.  It needs its story printed nearby so the patrons can appreciate your efforts to help keep the planet green!  As a restaurant business marketing piece, it becomes a very nicely placed tax deduction, too!  It is good to think about these things.

Re-Claimed Sofa Table...Iron, Stone and Wood

Sofa Table

$349.

F.O.B. The Dalles, Oregon

100% Re-Claimed Sofa Table.  The iron base was fished out of an alley dumpster.  The legs were bent out of shape.  The table top was destroyed and one piece of the glass top was broken while the other piece of glass was missing.  The wood framework was refinished, trimmed out to permit a nice fit for some stone tile and satin lacquered.  A discarded slab of wood from some old kitchen shelves was secured underneath the top with some recaptured screws to support the stone tile.  The stone tiles were discarded from a bank remodel project.  They were trashed because their edges were chipped too badly for the floor installation.

All of the glue, screws, sand paper, stain and lacquers are re-claimed products found in various second hand stores or trash containers.  Looking underneath the table will reveal their authentic nature.

Bent back into shape, leveled, recombined and finished very nicely, this table is ready to go back to a nice place and serve its duty well.

GOOD IDEA!:

This 're-claimed' sofa table would be an excellent choice for an eatery to use as a display station for their recycling storage disposal section.  For those great eateries who exhibit how well they help to clean up the landfills, this would be an excellent item to use to house those marketing features, especially if the table busing is a self-serve procedure of the restaurant.  Just place a sign on the table describing how important 'recycling' and 're-claimed' items are to our environment.  It will help to boost the image of your eatery establishment.  Good idea!
