Old Made New specialises in handcrafting custom dining tables made from recycled hardwoods. It began as a passion project for Joel Burton when he designed and built a table with his dad. One table led to another and Old Made New was born.

Joel loves the whole process, from design to sourcing the wood, building the table by hand, and lacquering the finished product to preserve the wood’s natural character. “The unique character and history behind the recycled wood I use are what make the tables so individual,” says Joel. “And it’s important to me that my work is environmentally conscious.”
