The Derby Tea Table

Named after the wharf in our old hometown of Salem, MA, the inspiration for this table came from a trip to the Peabody Essex Museum where a small Federal-style tea table caught Nick's eye. Since then, he's been making variations on this form — experimenting with different angles, scales, and joinery techniques.⁣

These tables were on display for the Guild of Vermont Furniture Makers show at the Brattleboro Museum & Art Center in 2021 / 2022! See more on that here and photos of the exhibit below.

Starting at: $1400 for recessed top, $1000 for flat top

“Nick English (Bridgewater VT) has been working on the Derby Tea Table. Spare, beautiful lines, and a video shot over three days by Erin English (click here) that is nothing short of magical. The video is part of the BMAC exhibition because it shows ‘the complexity and craftsmanship behind each piece.’ Watching Nick English construct a table is what you need with your morning coffee.”
