The River live-edge resin dining table
The Brief

A dining centrepiece that captures a glacial river frozen in glass.

A private client wanted a six-seat dining table: two live-edge walnut slabs split by a deep, clear-blue resin "river," with enough depth to read like real water.

The challenge was a bubble-free pour at that depth, a dead-flat top, and a finish that could survive daily family use.

The Approach

Slab to glass in three stages.

Preparing the walnut slabs and mould
01

Slab & mould prep

Walnut dried, planed and sealed; a melamine mould built dead-level for the pour.

Tinted resin pour and cure
02

Tinted pour & cure

Deep clear-blue epoxy poured in controlled layers, degassed, and cured over two weeks.

Sanding and polishing to high gloss
03

Sand & polish

Flattened, wet-sanded through grits and polished to a durable, food-safe high gloss.

The Result
"Every dinner guest asks about it. It genuinely looks like frozen water."

— Private client

The table arrived bubble-free and dead-flat, with the river reading exactly as the client imagined. Two years on, the surface still polishes up like new with a simple wipe.
