Wood Table Tops in London

Bring a natural, artistic touch to your home or office in London by creating your own table or desk with stunning live edge table top slabs from Elephant Timber. Specialising in premium-quality timber, we provide an exceptional selection of live edge table tops that are perfect for those seeking one-of-a-kind pieces. Whether you are a DIY enthusiast or a professional furniture maker, our collection of table tops in London will help you craft a masterpiece with timeless appeal and organic beauty.

Live edge table tops retain the natural shape and texture of the wood, making each piece truly unique. Instead of cutting straight, manufactured edges, the natural contours of the tree are preserved, resulting in a table top that blends modern design with the raw beauty of the outdoors. At Elephant Timber, we carefully select sustainable, high-quality wood slabs that highlight this natural character, creating live edge tables that are as much works of art as they are functional furniture. From rustic charm to sleek contemporary elegance, live edge tables offer versatility, durability, and a beautiful connection to nature that mass-produced furniture simply cannot match.

At Elephant Timber, we offer a diverse range of live edge table tops, giving London residents access to a variety of wood species, from oak and sycamore to ash and walnut. Each slab is meticulously chosen for its grain, colour and natural edge, ensuring that every piece tells a unique story. Whether you are designing a dining table, desk, coffee table, console table, or side table, our live edge slabs are perfect for your custom project.

Our table tops can be tailored to fit the dimensions you need, allowing you to create the perfect centrepiece for your space. While Elephant Timber supplies the raw slabs, you have the freedom to finish and design the table top to your specifications, ensuring that your live edge table is a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects your personal style.

Customer Projects

1. London is home to some ancient oak trees, like those in Greenwich Park, Kensington Gardens and Hampstead Heath. These trees, some of which are over 700 years old, have long been a symbol of strength and resilience. Their natural beauty and grain patterns are reminiscent of the types of oak slabs used in creating live edge table tops today.
2. After the Great Fire of London in 1666, much of the city’s rebuilding relied on timber, especially for roofing and framing. Although brick became more dominant over time, the use of sustainably sourced wood still remains popular in modern London for bespoke furniture, including live edge tables that bring a slice of history and nature into contemporary homes.
3. Located on the edge of the city, Epping Forest is one of London’s oldest woodlands, stretching back thousands of years. The forest was historically a key source of timber for building and continues to be a symbol of London’s connection to nature. Live edge wood slabs used in modern homes can evoke the raw, organic feel of this ancient woodland, blending the city’s rich heritage with modern design.

• Expert craftsmanship – our team has a deep understanding of wood and craftsmanship. We take great care in selecting each slab to ensure it showcases the natural beauty of the tree.
