Hesta Dining Table - Peacock

All you have to do is to look at this piece to know why it’s a real crowd favourite! Combining the old with the new, the Hesta Dining Table displays a proud geometric design surface which appeals to modern tastes, built through the use of our signature Vast carpentry techniques where we combine over 300 individual pieces of different timber to create its characteristic look. But it’s so much more than that! We have fashioned contemporary out of traditional, with old recycled timber being hand-cut and delicately placed into the intricate jigsaw design you are marvelling at before you now. 

The visual appeal is no accident! Our funky designers observe the piece in its entirety during its construction and work out which colours and shapes will best complement each other, resulting in a table which is completely unique and limited edition. 

We’re very excited and most proud of this old-new blending to create distinct pieces, and you will see more examples of this throughout our collection. 

The timber we use is sustainably sourced from a variety of recycled timbers sourced from old buildings, shipping vessels, bridges, railway sleepers, truck carts and other large pieces that would otherwise be discarded. Breathing life into these old materials brings unique character and history to your furniture piece. 

This piece has been handcrafted by one of our Vast Masters, these individual cabinet makers have been manufacturing Vast products for over a decade. Using traditional joinery techniques to maximise the timber's natural beauty is a big part of the unique look of each Vast product. We call this "working with the grain".

Each plank is individually treated in a computer controlled kiln to reduce the chance of any cracks or warping in its long future as a furniture component. After the joinery is complete it is then hand sanded and hand polished with several coats of high grade German lacquer so it will last for generations!

Hardwood is a natural material which reacts to its environment and although our manufacturing process allows for normal expansion and contraction, extreme high or low humidity may cause more swelling than normal. To minimise movement and ensure longevity of your purchase we recommend taking good care of your piece as outlined below: 

• Dust regularly with a clean cotton cloth;
• Use tablecloths, table runners and coasters to help prevent  scratches to the surface and wipe up any spills immediately; 
• To nourish and protect your furniture we recommend waxing with a natural beeswax every 6-12 months. 
• Only use natural wax, oil or water based cleaning products. Do not use solvent based cleaning products that may contain silicone or alcohol, as this may react and permanently damage the lacquer.
• Do not expose to fragrant oils, insect repellent lotion, or nail polish remover as these are often solvent based and will damage the lacquer 
• Avoid placing your furniture near fireplaces, in direct sunlight or under heating/cooling vents.
• Do not leave hot items or ice cold items directly on the surface of the table as water marking may occur.
• Any metal work featuring on your product has been powder coated. Any damage to the surface should be contained as soon as possible to prevent rusting.
