Know before you buy
At its base length of 84 inches, the table comfortably seats six to eight people. With both extension leaves inserted, it expands significantly to accommodate larger groups for dinner parties or holiday gatherings.
Because the table is crafted from reclaimed materials, each piece will feature unique variations in grain, texture, and color. These natural imperfections are intentional and contribute to the character and history of the Bella Antique collection.
Weighing 190 pounds, this is a substantial piece of furniture. While assembly is required, we recommend having at least two people assist with the process to safely manage the weight and size of the components.
This table features two extension leaves that allow you to adjust the length based on your seating needs. The double pedestal base provides a stable foundation, ensuring the table remains sturdy even when fully extended.
To maintain the finish, use a soft, dry cloth for regular dusting. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, and always use coasters or placemats to protect the surface from moisture and heat, which can affect the natural materials over time.
