Dining Table
The Carpenter's Dining Table, designed by GRAS and made in collaboration with Corkinho. Each table is made using traditional joinery and finished by hand, allowing the natural character of the materials to speak. The result is an object that feels both ancient and immediate—raw, refined and deeply tactile.
Made with
Corkinho
Materiality
Smoked oak, hand-textured cork
Dimensions

A series of three tables merging scorched
cork with beautifully crafted oak.
The oak bases are constructed with housed tenon joints, beautifully executed by carpenters local to the Corkinho studio.
The oak is smoked for 24 hours before hand assembly and final oiling.
" We wanted people to experience a material that not only reminds them of nature, but really is nature. "
CHARLOTTE ANNE DECLERQ, CORKINHO
" We explored a lot of cork finishing options and in the end, decided to use fire because it gave us exactly what we were searching for in terms of aesthetics and functionality. The tabletops have a tender and understated tactility, yet they are created by an immense and brutal power, a delightful contradictio in terminis. ”
