The Quarry Brass-Rail Long Table is a ten-foot communal table for the middle of a beer hall, where groups who don't know each other end up sharing a bench. The top reads as honed travertine, with a thick, softly squared edge, and it sits on two black steel A-frames joined low down by a single brass-finish rail.
Why the rail matters. On a long table the weak point is racking: a row of guests leaning on one side pushes the legs out of square. The stretcher locks the two frames together, and at about 10 in (25 cm) off the floor it doubles as a footrest for anyone perched on a bench.
Top choices. We build this top in travertine-look sintered stone as standard because it shrugs off beer, cider and hot food without sealing. Natural honed travertine is available for owners who like the patina, with the warning that it will mark and needs resealing.
Frames. The A-frames are welded steel, powder coated black, with adjustable glides so the table sits flat on a brewery floor that falls to a drain.
Length, width, top material, frame color and rail finish are made to order; counter-height frames are available for standing rails.
