Old XL oak workbench from 1900.

We love the size of this workbench, long and shallow. Its plentiful storage, with double doors, means it can be used as a real everyday piece of furniture.

As a sideboard, or as a kitchen island, for example.

Fully restored, this piece has been treated, sanded, lightly stained then protected with a clear matt varnish.

You can see its old patina, with traces of paint on the wood in places, including flat areas of paint under the top and inside the storage.

Its original features, specific to its use as a workbench, have deliberately been kept: its vertical vice with its double leg, the handmade closing system of the double door...

Three storage levels, with different depths and a handmade system.

Good overall condition, patina from use, marks and signs of its past life... obviously a very heavy piece.
