Light Red Oak Refectory Trestle Table Cotswold School Arts And Crafts Rustic MCM
About the Item
A gorgeous, interesting, and very rare light red oak Arts & Crafts refectory trestle table in lovely vintage/antique condition. Strikingly attractive, beautifully crafted and extremely versatile, this super table makes a lovely smaller dining table, a larger side tables or a great-looking desk, bedroom or occasional table and will add gorgeous light colouring, terrific craftsmanship and a wonderful, traditional-yet-decorative look to any interior. This is listing is for the redder of a pair – please see our other listings for the other table and the pair.
Expertly crafted from red oak, we wonder if this reassuringly heavy table was made in the likeness of the blonder of the near-matching pair, which was likely crafted around 1910-30 by a member of the Cotswold School and possibly sold by high-end retailer Heals, with this one red oak table being crafted perhaps a decade or two later.
This marvellously decorative table features outstanding tapering trestle legs, which are joined by impressive pegged-tenon jointed stretchers and supported by substantial broad feet – all beautifully crafted and with lovely, chamfered edges.
It has a decent-sized single plank top with gorgeous mitre-jointed decoratively carved bordering, which really sets it apart and strongly suggests their Cotswold School heritage, as the design school was renowned for including eye-catching, decorative flourishes to traditionally carved pieces of outstanding quality, particularly in light oak.
All in all this is a wonderfully charming and rare oak trestle table, which won’t fail to impress and will add gorgeous colouring and a wonderfully rustic-yet-decorative Cotswold School Arts & Crafts aesthetic to any setting. Individually they’re stunners and together these tables make a knockout pair – please our other listings for details.
CONDITION
This super table is in very good vintage/antique condition. Structurally sound, sturdy and reassuringly heavy, as you’d expect from a traditionally crafted English oak piece, it has only minor to-be-expected marks and blemishes to denote its not-inconsiderable age, mainly to the top, which are hardly noticeable out of direct sunlight and which, if anything, only adds to its semi-rustic antique appeal. Overall it’s a stunning, exceedingly charming and versatile trestle table in lovely vintage/antique condition and if well looked after it will be just as breathtaking and usable for many generations to come – please see the photos.

1898
Ernest Gimson was born in Leicester, in 1864. He was articled to the Leicester architect, Isaac Barradale, and worked at his offices on Grey Friars between 1881 and 1885. Aged 19, he attended a lecture on 'Art and Socialism' at the Leicester Secular Society given by the leader of the Arts and Crafts revival in Victorian England, William Morris, and, greatly inspired, talked with him until two in the morning, after the lecture.
Two years later, aged 21, Gimson had both architectural experience and a first class result from classes at Leicester School of Art. He moved to London to gain wider experience, and William Morris wrote him letters of recommendation. The first architectural practice he approached was John Dando Sedding, where he was taken on, and stayed for two years.
From Sedding, Gimson derived his interest in craft techniques, the stress on textures and surfaces, naturalistic detail of flowers, leaves and animals, always drawn from life, the close involvement of the architect in the simple processes of building and in the supervision of a team of craftsmen employed direct. Seddings offices were next door to the showrooms of Morris & Co., providing opportunity to see first hand the first flourishing of Arts and Crafts design. He met Ernest Barnsley...
