{"product_id":"teak-nest-of-tables-heals-british-1960s","title":"Teak Nest of Tables, British, c.1960s","description":"\u003cp\u003eA design that earns its place in any room — and disappears into one when not needed. Three tables. One footprint. It’s a beautiful solution to space-saving: from children’s homework to card games. And with care, the perfect place for plants and flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBritish, circa 1960s, construction details consistent with pieces retailed through Heal’s of Tottenham Court Road — who throughout the period commissioned and sourced from quality British makers, often without applied labels. No mark survives, but the specification does: sound structure, round-section tapered legs tight and true, tops conserved with Danish hard wax to bring the teak back to its original character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grain is the story. Sequential veneers cut from the same flitch — the figuring runs as a continuous conversation across all three surfaces. A maker who cared enough to match them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe screw-in legs are an American invention, but they became a character of British postwar production. They had a touch of technological chutzpah — and in a pre-flatpack era, they allowed the owner to share in the enjoyment of joinery. You felt part of the making process. Even today, screwing these legs into place feels genuinely rewarding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Conserved. Tops redressed with Danish hard wax. Structure excellent. Minor patina consistent with sixty years of honest use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConserved in our Buckinghamshire workshop.
