从阿帕拉契森林到昆明工坊

Sandry Law 亲自挑选我们的黑胡桃木,走访阿帕拉契山麓的小型家族锯木厂,那里树木可缓慢生长 50 至 80 年才被砍伐。木料先风干六个月,再送入窑中烘干至含水率 8%,这个目标能防止木材变形,即便是潮湿的滇南茶室(这些茶桌最常存在的地方)。

运抵昆明后,木板由与 Sandry 合作超过十年的第三代木匠进行榫接切割。每张桌子都采用燕尾榫角落接合——不用金属紧固件——排水槽则是以线锯机沿着木纹手工切割,确保水永远不会积聚在毛细管上。90 厘米的尺寸源自茶馆的需求:一张可舒适容纳两人、同时能放入北京公寓茶角落的桌子。重 16 公斤,感觉敦实却可一人搬动,无论是快闪茶摊还是固定 chá shì,都能完美融入。

装箱前,每件作品都会涂上三层食品级桐油,用 0000 号钢丝绒抛光,再于 LED 灯下检查是否有细微裂纹。最终呈现的茶桌,只需一块湿布,就能在数十年每日品茗中保持美丽。

In the workshop's words

Material & finish

Grain, at rest

Rich chocolate‑brown heartwood with tight, straight grain; a faint, sweet‑nutty scent clings to the surface.

Under water

Under a damp cloth the grain deepens to an almost purple‑black, revealing subtle medullary rays that catch the light.

In low light

The low‑gloss oil finish leaves the wood silky to the touch — droplets bead rather than soak in, and the colour remains warm even in shadow.

Scent

An understated, natural walnut aroma lingers after a session, never competing with the tea’s fragrance.

Underhand

The 2‑cm thick top absorbs the minute vibrations of a whisked matcha or a boiling kettle, steadying every movement.

Finish, over time

Smooth, slightly tactile; fingertips can still trace the gentle ridges of the grain, a reminder of the tree’s decades of growth.

Setting it up

A method, not a recipe.

Method
Daily care & setup
Heat tolerance
Avoid prolonged exposure to teapots above 95 °C; always use a trivet.

以微湿的布擦拭溅出的水渍,每年用食品级矿物油重新上油一次。排水盘静音滑出;每次品茗后清空,以保持木材干燥。
