While browsing through the newly opened Market Place downtown, I couldn't help but notice this beautiful, super-heavy kitchen island.
The sign says that the tabletop was used in the old Selma Machine Shop that was located where Everyman Books is now.
The legs are crafted from lumber salvaged from historic Water Avenue buildings.
The apron and shelf are made of flooring from an antebellum home in Orrville.

What a wonderful way to recycle wood! It is great to learn that one can own a piece of Selma history just by investing in that table.
Glad to see it being salvaged and given a whole new use.
I wish I have a kitchen big enough for an island table for prep work.
That's a beautiful table. I'd love to have something like that in my home.
Perfect example of "reduce, reuse, recycle!" The table is gorgeous, the wood is almost silken in appearance!
Love the table. I bet the price tag is as heavy as the table.
BTW, to grill eggplant, mix some olive oil, garlic, and basil or oregano, salt and pepper to taste. Brush on eggplant slices about 1/4 inch thick. Grill on medium about 3minutes each side.
I sure would love to have that.....I do have a birthday coming up....
I love these kinds of wood tables. Did you buy it?
Bfarr, thanks for that recipe!
Jim, I have a birthday coming up too!
Jacob, Nope, didn't buy it and don't really have a place to put it but wish I did!
