Expanding Dining Table
This table was custom made for a client in New York City. He wanted an expandable table that would fit a particular space in his apartment. The table is made of solid cherry and is designed to expand from 52 inches to 88 inches by simply pulling out each 18-inch leaf. The table is engineered to allow the extensions to be stored under the top. The extensions can be easily pulled out on solid oak rails and the main top drops into place. No need to store the extensions in a closet! This table measures 52 inches long (when closed) x 28 inches wide x 30 inches tall but I can customize to fit your home. The client wanted to add some subtle flair to the table, so I created a gentle curve on the aprons, a subtle taper on two sides of the legs; and the legs are canted outward at a slight angle. I used a combination of boiled linseed oil and beeswax to bring out the natural coloring and character of the beautiful cherry wood. I can also make the table in walnut, maple or virtually any other species you'd like. I will deliver for free in the NY tri-state area. I can also ship with white glove service -- rates will vary depending on your location and size of your table.
