What is the best wood to use for a farmhouse table?
1 Answer

The best wood to use in designing a farmhouse style table is a matter of preference — farmhouse tables are frequently made of white oak, hickory or cypress. Largely defined by its geography, functionality and simplicity, the farmhouse style, both in the United States and abroad, is much emulated today — often as an amalgam of other rustically rooted ones, such as cottage, French country and industrial. Find a collection of antique and vintage farmhouse tables and other furniture designed in the farmhouse style on 1stDibs.
