With Ancient Kauri plywood you get stunning beauty and excellent stability. This opens up wonderful possibilities to get matching grains across big surfaces. We can slip match or bookmatch beautiful highly figured Ancient Kauri.

Ancient Kauri Large Table Top
Vineyard 7 & 8 is the proud owner of what was the largest single piece of wood that was available in the United States. The 20-foot slab was flattened, filled, sanded, oiled and waxed to become a beautiful table made a single piece of wood.
The table was finished with organic linseed oil followed by an organic linseed oil/beeswax polish. The end result is a very durable velvet finish on a timeless piece. Vinyard 7 & 8 invites you to visit and enjoy a glass of wine on the oldest wood in the world.
