It is very substantial and constructed from solid French oak timbers which have a bleached natural finish. The top is very substantial at 3cm/1¼" thickness and the base is robust and stands on four individually turned and shapely legs joined together by a central stretcher rail with ends between the legs. It is constructed in the manner typical of French Farmhouse Tables of this time and will add a solid, substantial and timeless presence to any décor. The entire table has been stripped completely to give a raw, unfinished appearance. The grain is very open but there should be no problem in applying a finish of your choice provided that all surfaces are prepared according to the relevant instructions given with the product of your choice. As to the durability of the finished surface of your choice being resistant to marks I am not sure of any finish that will guarantee this apart from commercially sprayed lacquer finishes which would be subject to the guarantees that anyone carrying out this work would be prepared to give. The base for the table has four legs with a central stretcher rail between the two end legs (ie the shortest distance ) and in turn there is a further stretcher rail to the centre, thus making an H Frame.
