Smoked Oak Ext Dining Table 140/180

​The Smoked Oak Extending Dining Table is more than just a piece of furniture; it is the heartbeat of the home. Designed for those who view dining as an event rather than a routine, this table provides a magnificent centerpiece for spacious dining rooms. With its generous 90cm depth and clever extending mechanism, it effortlessly transitions from intimate family dinners to lively celebrations with friends.

​Whether you are hosting a formal holiday feast or a casual Sunday brunch, this table offers the structural integrity and aesthetic “wow factor” required to anchor your dining space.

​Engineering for Connection: The Extension System

​What truly sets this table apart is its practical, user-friendly design. Measuring 140cm in its standard form, it comfortably seats six diners with plenty of elbow room. However, for those occasions that demand more, the table extends to a full 180cm, comfortably accommodating up to eight people.

​Unlike many inferior tables that require you to find a cupboard or under-bed space for the extension pieces, this table features a self-storing leaf system. The extension leaf sits neatly inside the table frame when not in use, making the transition from six to eight seats a smooth, one-person task that can be completed in seconds.

​The Significance of the 90cm Depth

​While many standard dining tables settle for an 80cm or 85cm depth, the Smoked Oak Extending Table offers an extra-generous 90cm depth. This may seem like a small detail, but in practical terms, it is a game-changer.

​This extra space allows for:

• ​Central Serving: Plenty of room for water pitchers, wine coolers, and large serving platters without encroaching on guest place settings.
• ​Decor and Centerpieces: Space to display floral arrangements or candles while still maintaining a clear “no-clutter” zone for plates and glasses.
• ​Comfort: Diners sitting opposite each other enjoy a greater sense of personal space, making for a more relaxed and premium dining experience.

​Sophisticated Smoked Oak Finish

​The beauty of this table lies in its unique grey-washed Smoked Dark Brown Oak finish. This isn’t your typical golden oak; the “smoked” process enhances the depth of the natural grain, resulting in a contemporary, sophisticated tone that bridges the gap between traditional and modern decor.

​Finished with a high-quality matt lacquer, the table boasts a low-sheen protection that highlights the wood’s organic texture while providing a robust barrier against the hazards of a busy dining room. This protective layer resists daily wear, minor spills, and the heat from serving dishes, ensuring the table remains pristine for years to come.

​Built to Last: Materials and Craftsmanship

​Invest in quality that lasts a lifetime. This table is constructed using a blend of solid oak and premium oak veneers. The solid oak provides the heavy-duty framework and legs required for stability, while the engineered veneers on the tabletop ensure a perfectly flat, warp-resistant surface that can handle the shifting temperatures of a kitchen or dining environment.

• ​Architectural Statement: The thick-cut legs and clean lines give the table a grounded, high-end feel.
• ​Daily Durability: Designed to withstand the rigors of family life, from homework sessions to elaborate dinner parties.
• ​Easy Maintenance: A simple wipe with a damp cloth is all that is needed to maintain the luster of the matt lacquered finish.

​Complete the Look

​To create a cohesive and harmonious dining environment, we recommend pairing this table with seating from our wider Dining Furniture collection. Choosing matching chairs or benches ensures that the grey-washed Smoked Dark Brown Oak tones flow seamlessly throughout your room, creating an inviting space that guests will never want to leave.
