A through mortise and tenon joint features a tenon that passes entirely through its corresponding mortise, with its end visible on the opposite side. This design creates a robust interlocking connection, often with the tenon end slightly protruding for aesthetic or additional securing purposes. Celebrated for its straightforwardness and structural integrity, this joint becomes a visual testament to craftsmanship, especially when the protruding tenon is chamfered or detailed.
Common in timber framing and some furniture, it showcases construction honesty. Merging durability with design transparency, the through mortise and tenon joint stands as an emblem of both the material's strength and the artisan's skill.
