info In 1989 Danny Lane made the Woodcutters’s Table from timber off-cuts. This was a broad disk of variously sized chunks of wood with a common surface higher, bound tightly by a massive rusted iron chain around the circumference. Patrik Fredrikson reprised and refined the same idea in 2002 for a table made ion raw birth logs, complete with bark, bound by an industrial steel strap. It was primitive because the wood was raw (Fredrikson described it as ‘archaic’), but without the ostentation of Garouste and Bonnet’s Barbarian furniture.
