Waiting for a Table

We ordered a dining room table a few weeks ago, but will have to wait another month for it to arrive. We searched around quite a bit and did not find anything we liked at the usual furniture depots. Finally, we found a great handcrafted table at a mennonite furniture store in London. The table is more "rustic" than any other table we looked at, but we both liked it a lot, it is quite original, and it should blend well with the craftsman features of our house.

Here is a preview photo, but this does not really do it justice. The table will be made out of wormy maple with a dark walnut finish, and the surface of the table will have saw marks in it. We also ordered four chairs, as well as a bench (in lieu of two more chairs) that has a turnbuckle and chunky wood style similar to the table.
