  1. 5 Must-Know Facts About Live Edge Tables Before You Buy Live edge tables are fast becoming a favorite among people looking to bring nature indoors. They give off a rough, organic look and a certain allure that makes it impossible to take your eyes off them. However, before dashing off to buy a custom dining table or epoxy tables for sale, here are five essential facts to keep in mind before you make that all- important purchase. 5 Live Edge Table Facts to Keep in Mind Before Making a Purchase 1. Each piece is unique. The beauty of live edge tables lies in their individuality. Unlike mass-produced furniture, each piece is unique because it’s made using the natural shape of the wood. If you’re considering a custom dining table, expect to see distinct features like knots, bark inclusions, and varying grain patterns that will never be replicated in another piece.

  2. 2. Type of Wood Matters A Lot All woods aren't the same with live edge furniture. Wood types determine different aesthetics and durability levels. Hardwood such as walnut, oak, or maple is especially sought after for custom dining tables because of its durability and rich, textured character. Softwoods, for instance, pine may offer a lighter feel but aren't as durable in high-traffic areas. 3. Epoxy Can Accentuate the Design Most live edge tables are further enhanced with epoxy resin that fills natural pores or cracks in the wood. Epoxy tables available for purchase showcase exquisite, bright resin inlays that pop or add polish. The resin not only provides structural support but also highlights the organic beauty of the wood. 4. Maintenance Is Key Live edge tables, especially those with hardwood, can be a headache. Unlike any other piece of furniture, they require resealing and periodic treatment to preserve their finish. Get ready to dust your table gently, non-abrasively, and apply the right wood oil or wax to keep it looking its absolute best. With an epoxy table, you may also need to pay attention to how the resin wears over time. 5. Price Reflects Workmanship The obvious aspect to expect in a live edge wood coffee table or custom-made dining table is the price one will pay. These types of tables are usually pricey because they consume more time, skill, and materials to make. The intricate process of choosing, creating, and finishing each table makes it even costlier. Conclusion Live edge tables are art pieces that not only look magnificent but also serve as stunningly beautiful functional furniture items. Knowing the materials involved and how to maintain it also explains just about all the possible costs that lie with such a table will be very helpful when a live edge coffee table or epoxy table for sale is chosen in place of a custom dining table. Whichever it may be, it's a timeless one-of-a-kind experience.
