Cps Solid Oak Dining Table And Bench
CPS-Chicago Public Schools have been closing and being turned into charter schools. Dilettante received a large quantity of old wooden furniture from the closing schools and we have been modifying it and using it as raw material. The top and bench are patched together from two oak tables, and the legs are made from salvaged old growth Douglas fir. It is 30" wide and 8' long. One bench sits under a window and they use old oak chairs on the opposite side of the table.

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
Dilettante Studios (DS) is a small, full-service design/build studio specializing in hand-crafted furniture, cabinets, carpentry, built-ins, environments, installations and art fabrication, using primarily found, inherited, re-purposed and salvaged materials. We also work with virgin materials when necessary, but do our best to go second-hand whenever possible, as both a principle and an invited opportunity for adaptive design. We hope you will work with us for our expertise as much as our commitments to waste reduction and creativity.
