8. 100-Year Plan

We are often inspired by centuries-old antique pieces and we do our best to ensure our tables will in turn last 100 years. Yes, they may need sympathetic repairs or restoration but as a company, we intend to support that repair, restoration, re-purposing and resale of our products for generations to come.
