The Shaker Round Dining Table has a two-tone finish that provides casual elegance to your dining area. This dining table is crafted of kiln-dried solid cherry and select hardwoods and comes in a selection of hand distressed antique finish options and features a topcoat of catalyzed lacquer that provides durability and protection against spills. This table features a center lever top lock that is mounted underneath so a simple movement of the handle unlocks and nudges the two halves apart; when closing, a turn of this handle draws the two halves together snugly. It comes with one 18-inch interlocking leaf with aprons for a secure fit and correct alignment of the top. It seats four people without the leaf and six people when fully extended. The overall dimensions are 42 inches in diameter and 30 inches high. With the leaf in, this dining table is 60 inches long.
Proudly Handcrafted
This item is handcrafted in a way few products are today. Master craftsmen hand-assemble each piece, using wooden dowels, tenon joinery, and other traditional methods to ensure the highest quality. Each item then undergoes a meticulous 16-step finishing process (read more about this process below) - all done by hand - resulting in a unique piece with incredible depth and beauty. From hand-rubbing with steel wool and oil, to physically distressing pieces for certain antiqued finishes, the item doesn't leave the company until it has been crafted with care, then thoroughly inspected and proudly sent to you, to enjoy for years to come.
