A Monumental 'Mouseman' Refectory Table with Four Matching Benches, Dated 1937
P.O.A
This extremely impressive table is, by repute, the largest piece ever made in Robert 'Mouseman' Thompson's workshop. The top is adzed, and shallow ripples can be seen when looking along the surface, a distinctive, pleasing effect, and one particularly associated with the Mouseman workshop.
Dated '1937' on the face of the end trestle.
The top is a single oak plank 9.5cm thick.
The four benches are approximately 283cm (9'3") wide x 29.5cm (11 1/2") deep x 45cm (1'6") high.
Provenance:
Moorlands Preparatory School, commissioned by a grateful old boy (the donation commemorated in the brass plaque affixed to the centre of the top).
