The main inspiration for Samuel Wilkinson’s HOOF LOUNGE TABLE derives from the feet which are shapened at the ends producing a striking yet functional detail. The word ‘hoof’ originates from the protective part of the feet of ungulate animals. In contrast
to most tables, the leg ends of HOOF are left in natural wood so avoid the paint from chipping off from being either kicked or knocked when cleaning. The foot detail is created by reversing the usual manufacturing process. Most furniture that have a pain
ted section and a natural part are initially assembled, then masked off, and painted. HOOF stands out by being painted first and then trimmed back to reveal the natural grain. The table has emerged from continuous exploration and development of production
techniques to create a fresh aesthetic. Another detail that stands out when you experience the table is the soft rolled edge. The fine edge is created from the soft chamfer being on the top and bottom. This also gives the tables a tactile feel and clearl
y shows that the tables are made from solid wood. The table is also available in a higher edition with a smaller tabletop. & much of Wilkinson’s work carries references to nature and the beautiful, unimaginable creations found in the scenery.
