Know before you buy
In its standard 78.7-inch length, the table comfortably seats six people. With the addition of extension leaves, it can easily accommodate larger groups for dinner parties.
The soaped finish creates a matte, natural look that highlights the oak's authentic grain. It is a traditional Danish treatment that feels soft to the touch and allows the wood to age gracefully over time.
The table is designed to accommodate removable extension leaves, which allow you to adjust the length of the table based on your seating needs. When not in use, the leaves should be stored separately to maintain the table's clean aesthetic.
Yes, solid oak is a dense, high-quality hardwood known for its strength and longevity. Because it is a natural material, it is resilient against daily wear, though it will develop a unique patina as it ages.
The oval shape softens the visual footprint of the table, making it a great choice for smaller rooms or high-traffic areas where sharp corners might be cumbersome. It also encourages better conversation flow, as there is no 'head' of the table.
