A worm-eaten oak table from France, numbered 222341, was bought by an artist and her husband for their open kitchen in their thatched farmhouse overlooking Roskilde Fjord.

 

It weighs a ton with the thick oak framing the centerboards. The worm holes were there when they bought it, but the myriads of paint stains were not. This coffee table is one of the extensions to a massive dining table.
