Live-Edge Slab Table with Green Epoxy River
in Kochi, Kerala
Live-edge hardwood slab dining table in Kochi — green epoxy river joining two slabs, finished with LEINOS Interior Hardwax Oil 290. Warm tones, dramatic grain, food-safe surface.
Context
The brief, and the surface.
A large live-edge hardwood slab dining table built from two pieces of timber joined by a green-tinted epoxy river running down the centre line. The piece needed a finish that would deepen the wood tone, protect against red-wine and food spills, and not interfere with the translucent epoxy inlay. LEINOS Interior Hardwax Oil 290 was applied to the wood portions only; the epoxy was left bare and polished.
The team masked the epoxy river with painter's tape before oiling — Hardwax Oil migrating onto the cured epoxy would have left a haze. Oil went on with a cloth pad in two thin coats, tape removed immediately after each application to prevent skin-pull at the wood-epoxy joint.

Outcome
The result on site.
Live-edge slab dining table in Kochi with green epoxy river — LEINOS Interior Hardwax Oil 290 protects the wood portions against red-wine and food spills without hazing the translucent epoxy inlay.
The oil brought out warm tones and dramatic grain across both slabs while complementing the translucent green epoxy inlay. The dining surface wipes clean of red wine and food spills; the epoxy river retains its glass-clarity polish without haze.
Results vary by surface condition, climate exposure, application method, and ongoing maintenance.
