Mechanical & Industrial Details

The Shoemaker base features cast iron legs, a central mechanical adjustment system, and exposed structural elements that highlight its industrial origins. The hand-crank mechanism allows smooth height transitions across a full 11-inch range.

Embossed “St. Louis, USA” markings on the base pay tribute to its historical inspiration, reinforcing authenticity while making the base itself a visual focal point.

Seating & Use Versatility

At 96” × 48”, this configuration is ideal for large dining spaces, open-concept layouts, and statement interiors. The adjustable height system allows seamless transitions between standard dining height (30”), counter height, and elevated pub height (up to 41”).

Industrial Heritage

Inspired by an iconic Shoemaker workbench from the early 1900s in St. Louis, Missouri — once a hub of the American shoe manufacturing industry — this table reflects a time when craftsmanship and function were inseparable.

Rustic Deco honors this legacy by incorporating period-authentic design elements and embossing “St. Louis, USA” directly into the cast iron base as a tribute to the city’s industrial history.

Designed in Knoxville, Tennessee and assembled in-house using a combination of sourced components and hand-finished craftsmanship to deliver lasting strength and authentic industrial character.
