Huxley Curve Dining Tables

The Huxley Curve Dining Table is a 180cm table with an oak veneer top on solid oak legs, sealed with a water-based finish. The legs taper slightly and the silhouette is softly curved. Natural oak suits modern, Scandinavian and rustic rooms alike.

Combining an oak veneer top with solid oak legs is a sensible piece of engineering rather than a compromise. Veneer over a stable core resists the seasonal movement that a solid timber top of this width would show, while solid legs give the base the strength it actually needs.

The tapering is subtle and does more than it appears to. Legs that narrow towards the floor make a table look lighter without reducing its stability, which matters at 180 x 90cm where a heavy base would dominate the room. A water-based sealer protects the surface while keeping the grain visible rather than plasticised. Natural oak is about as easy a timber tone as there is to place, sitting comfortably with white walls, colour or other timbers.
