Midcentury Beech & Iroko School / Science Lab Bench Table & Pair of Stools
This old, salvaged school lab table with an accompanying pair of tall stools is an absolute blast from the past for anyone who grew up in the seventies / eighties. Karl’s completed a thoughtful restoration of the table taking due care not to strip away all its character, pen scratches, compass pricks and history. Made with a dark, solid iroko table top and solid blond beech legs, its construction is super solid, built to withstand the daily rough and tumble of school life. The two tall, solid oak stools are most likely not ex-school – their design is a little too finessed! – but they were acquired as a set and they partner brilliantly with the table, tucking neatly under when not in use and of course, both sides of the table and the ends can be sat at. This set would make an excellent kitchen island or breakfast bar.

Description
This original, vintage set is ‘sold as seen’. Overall it is in good – very good, used condition. The school / lab table has been partially restored. It has been thoroughly cleaned and the solid iroko (a very hard-wearing dark wood, similar to mahogany) table top has been carefully stripped, oiled and wax polished for a durable finish but with due care taken not to strip all the soul and character away. There are still knocks, dents and marks in the wood. The legs and base have had a wax polish applied but otherwise the finish here is original and as you can see in our photos it is lightly marked and scuffed through use. The pair of accompanying solid oak stools have also been stripped and waxed too so are in very good order. We don’t believe these are original ex-school stools but they were acquired with the table and they go very well, tucking under tidily. Both the table and the stool pair are in good – very good order, well-made and solid with no wobbles, repairs or joint concerns. Do browse our photos for a good sense of its condition. If you have any questions or would like to view this set, just get in touch.
