About the Item

The heart pine wood that was sourced for this top, was salvaged from a WWII era army barracks building in Dayton, TN. It was used as a residence hall for researchers from the University Tennessee Knoxville during the 1960s-1970s. We paired it with a custom made, George Nakashima style base that was crafted by one our employees a few years ago. We've been waiting for the perfect top to come along and complete the marriage. Exceptional heart of pine slab coffee table with natural live edge. This table is a distinctly modern spin on they typical rustic slab. Notice how the top surface consists of contrasting wood tone planks that are staved together to create an artistic effect. The rustic top is harmonized with the modern aesthetics of this Nakashima inspired base. Crafted from a commanding slab of live-edge redwood, this coffee table is a dramatic study in natural artistry and timeless craft. The richly figured grain, with its honeyed warmth and undulating contours, bears the tactile history of old-growth wood. Resting on a sculptural root-style base, the composition blurs the line between landscape and functional design—serving as both centerpiece and organic sculpture. In excellent vintage condition, the surface finish remains lustrous and well-preserved. Minor natural irregularities in the wood affirm its authenticity and artisanal origin, celebrating the character of its live-edge form.

Vintage Heywood Wakefield Wheat Finish X Base Square Coffee Table
By Heywood-Wakefield Co.
Located in Chattanooga, TN
There's a rich, deep, aged honey patina on this wheat finish birch / maple. We achieved a a near perfect muted grain and color match to the top surface that we delicately restored. This sleek, study, understated and classic modern coffee table embraces mid-century minimalism design. The "X" base with intersecting spanners adds an appealing architectural elegance that remains timeless to this day. Sculpted, and assembled with no visible hardware. This restored Heywood-Wakefield 392-G square coffee table is an elegant expression of mid-century minimalism, crafted in the signature wheat-maple finish that has made the brand so revered. It measures approximately 36 inches by 36 inches (91 × 91 cm) across the top, and stands about 15.75 inches (40 cm) high — a scale that delivers both generous surface area and low, relaxed visual impact. The design is beautifully composed: a square tabletop with softened edges floats above an intersecting “X”-base, with crossed stretchers that add structural elegance and visual interest without heaviness. The wheat finish has a muted grain: blond tones, subtle warmth, and a light yet rich surface that reflects light softly while grounding surrounding furnishings. The craftsmanship is clean: wood joints are refined, hardware is concealed, allowing the form and wood grain to speak. Because of its proportions and design, this piece works beautifully in a range of interiors. It can anchor a sprawling seating area in a living room, serve as the central gathering point in a lounge, or provide surface and sculptural presence in modern or Scandinavian-light-wood interiors. Its square silhouette allows symmetry in layout; its wheat finish harmonizes with wood tones, brass or matte metal accents, soft upholstery, and even minimalist or muted color palettes. We're certain you won't find a more sublime vintage rendition of this coffee table anywhere. Stamped by the maker with illegible date. Good overall vintage condition. Top has been professionally refinished by our in-house cabinet shop.Only very minor age appropriate imperfections remain on the legs and spanners. Heywood Wakefield Coffee Table...
