English Oak or Ash
Hand selected, locally sourced west country solid oak or ash planed to 33mm thick is our choice for this lovely two piece table top. Both are hard wearing, beautifully tactile hardwoods that tend to have far more grain variation than imported timbers, resulting in each and every table top being completely unique! We also make a point of wire brushing the grain before finishing with natural oil to leave a lovely depth and feel to the wood. learn more...
Table Finishes

Ash – Limewash Finish
Oak – Limewash Finish
Limewash hardwax oil
Provides a beautiful, yet natural whitening of the wood, whilst retaining and enhancing the beauty of the grain. Our Limewash hardwax oil finish is a unique blend of natural oils and hard waxes without the addition of solvents, which provides hardwearing and durable protection from everyday spills and stains. No volatile organic compounds (0% VOC’s) and 100% Eco-Friendly.

Your Questions Answered
Choosing from our collection of hand made tables is a personal process, and questions are part of that journey. Here, we’ve answered some of the most common enquiries about the Drift table, covering materials, finishes, sizing and the making process to help you commission with confidence.
The Drift table is available in a range of standard sizes designed to suit everyday dining and social gatherings. These sizes work well in most homes while maintaining the table’s relaxed, understated proportions.
If you need a different size, whether longer for entertaining or more compact for a smaller room, we can make the Drift table to your exact measurements.
The Drift table is crafted from carefully selected solid hardwoods chosen for their strength, durability and natural beauty. The exact timber options may vary, but each piece is selected for its grain, tone and character.
Because every board is different, no two Drift tables are ever the same. This natural variation is part of what makes a hand made table special.
We offer a considered range of finishes designed to protect the wood while allowing the grain to remain visible. These include natural oil finishes and softer tones that complement the Drift table’s relaxed design.
If you are looking for a bespoke finish, such as a tinted oil or a particular colour treatment, this can usually be arranged on request.
Absolutely, our hand made tables are built with durable joinery and high-quality timbers to withstand the rigours of daily meals, gatherings and activities, maturing beautifully over
The Drift table is designed for daily life. Made from solid hardwood and constructed using robust joinery, it is well suited to regular use, family meals and gatherings with friends.
This is a hand made table built to last, developing character over time rather than wearing out.
Your table will follow the same overall design and proportions as shown, but each Drift table will be unique. As every hand made table is crafted from natural timber, variations in grain, colour and texture are to be expected.
These differences are part of the appeal of solid wood furniture and ensure your Drift table is genuinely one of a kind.
A Yaffle & Bosk hand made table is built individually, by skilled craftsman, using solid timber and traditional joinery techniques. Oak and ash are big favourites. The Drift table is not mass produced and is never taken from stock. Each table is made to order, to your exact requirements, with time taken to select the timber, construct the frame and hand finish.
This approach results in a table with real presence and character. Natural grain patterns, subtle variations in colour and the feel of solid wood are all part of the design, creating a table that is built to last and to be lived with every day.
You can order the Drift hand made table directly through the product page by selecting your preferred size and finish, then adding it to your basket.
If you would like advice before ordering, or if you have a specific requirement that is not shown online, you are very welcome to get in touch. We are always happy to talk through options and help you choose the right table for your space.
Yes. While the Drift table is shown in a range of popular options, we regularly make hand made tables outside these specifications.
If you need a different length or width, or if you are looking for a particular finish to suit your interior, we can work with you to create a table that fits comfortably and feels right in your home.
Each Drift table is made to order, allowing time for timber selection, construction and finishing. Lead times are typically around 8 to 10 weeks, although this can vary depending on workload and timber availability.
Once your order is confirmed, we will provide an estimated delivery date and keep you informed as your table progresses through the workshop.
Yes. Wherever possible, we deliver tables personally to ensure they arrive safely and are handled with care. The Drift table is a solid and substantial piece, and we are happy to help position it in your space and assist with any straightforward assembly if required.
Delivery costs depend on location and access and will always be confirmed with you in advance.
Solid wood furniture benefits from simple, thoughtful care. We recommend using placemats or coasters for hot items, wiping up spills promptly and avoiding prolonged exposure to direct heat or strong sunlight.
Your hand made table can be refreshed over time using suitable oils or waxes. Clear aftercare guidance is provided so you can look after your table with confidence.
