American Black Walnut is renowned for its deep, dark character—rich chocolate tones, flowing grain, and a natural elegance that feels both bold and understated. Each live‑edge slab carries its own dramatic contours, making every table a striking centrepiece with a presence all its own. I also offer European Walnut for those seeking a lighter aesthetic. With its warm honey-to-light brown colouring, gentle figuring and understated elegance European Walnut retains the timeless beauty of walnut while creating a brighter, softer feel within a space.
Because American Black Walnut timber is harder to source in the UK, availability and slab size can vary. I'm transparent about this from the start, and I work closely with each customer to select the right piece of walnut for their design. From choosing the timber to refining the final finish, every stage is a collaboration to ensure the table reflects exactly what you envision.
Every table is made to order, allowing me to work closely with each client to shape something truly personal. Average table size is around 1000mm by 400mm, offering a balanced footprint for most living spaces. For solid walnut designs, exact measurements vary in accordance with the tree the table is cut from and to preserve the live-edges, but can be customisable to length (max of 1000mm).
Each piece follows the natural contours of the timber, resulting in a table that is genuinely one of a kind.

I work exclusively with premium hardwoods – Walnut, Oak, Ash, and other characterful British and North American species. No two pieces of timber behave the same. Understanding how a slab will move, settle, and age is part of the craft – and it’s why every table is built individually, not batch‑produced.
I select each slab for:
-Stability
-Grain pattern
-Colour consistency
-Natural character
-Long‑term durability
-Designed Around Your Home, Not a Catalogue
Your table is made to order, which means the dimensions, timber, style, finish, and leg design are all chosen specifically for your space. Instead of relying on standard sizes, I guide you through each decision so the final piece feels visually balanced, practical to use, and perfectly proportioned for your home.
Built With Traditional Joinery and Modern Precision
Each table is built using a blend of traditional joinery, precision machinery, and hand tools for the final shaping and refinement. This hybrid approach gives you the accuracy of modern tools with the warmth and character that only hand‐finished craftsmanship can achieve.
A Durable, Natural Finish Designed for Everyday Living
Your table is protected with a premium hard wax oil system that enhances the grain while standing up to daily use. The finish is food‐safe, water‐resistant, easy to maintain, and repairable without sanding the entire surface – a practical, long‐lasting choice that keeps the table looking beautiful.
Built for Longevity With Structural Integrity in Mind
Longevity is built into every stage of the process. Stable joinery, correct grain orientation, movement‐allowing fixings, high‐quality steel legs, and durable finishes all work together to ensure your table stays stable for decades. Wood is a natural material – it moves, breathes, and changes with the seasons and my job is to build in a way that respects that movement.
A Lifetime Guarantee
Every Riviere table comes with a lifetime structural guarantee. If anything ever goes wrong with the craftsmanship, I fix it.
That’s the confidence that comes from building things properly.
