Cart Coffee Table
22"H X 37"W X 22"D
These unique table designs are patterned after antique grape crates used in the vine- yards of Europe. These original crates were loaded side by side on special, narrow horse- drawn carts that traveled slowly between the rows of vines. As the cart moved through the vineyard, pickers would unload their individual "hods" and return to their picking tasks. The cart, when full, would unload at the presses and return to the vineyard.
The original crates were open at the top for easy loading and unloading. To make our tables user-friendly we have added a split top that opens in halves from the middle to reveal ample storage. We have crafted the tables from rough, re-sawn lumber and added our own stencil to enhance the authenticity of the pieces. We love these designs and hope that you will similarly enjoy this little piece of history. |
