Whether you’re on the hunt for a modern trestle table with rustic charm or you’re looking for something strictly contemporary, there’s a table for you in the images that follow.

Wooden Trestle Tables

We begin with trestle tables made entirely from wood, like this Modern Trestle Dining Table from Etsy shop Moderncre8ve. Note the Midcentury style, evoked by features such as tapered legs. The sleek silhouette can’t help but demand attention:

This striking Reclaimed Russian Oak Trestle Rectangular Dining Table from Restoration Hardware showcases the beauty of reclaimed solid oak timbers from “decades-old buildings in Russia,” as noted in the product description. Therefore, the wood is filled with character, from knots and nicks to nail marks.

Tiger maple is the material of choice in this next stunning table from Custom Made, created by Joseph Breznick. The light wood is definitely a standout feature, but some might say the best part is the way you can customize both the size and the finish to meet the needs of your space!

There’s nothing like a bold vintage piece, and this Vintage Mid Century/Danish Modern Solid Teak Trestle Floating Coffee Table from Atomic Threshold is a testament to the beauty of 1960s Danish modern design. Let’s hear it for solid teak!

Also from Crate & Barrel is the Union 72″ Trestle Dining Table, which brings modern flair to classic summer picnic table style. An X-base in powdercoated aluminum is the perfect complement to slatted grey faux wood (polystyrene) that’s both UV- and weather-resistant:
