Cheltenham Industrial Rectangular Pine Wood Dining Table For 8 180cm

Solid Pinewood Tabletop

Our solid pinewood tables are crafted through an extensive manufacturing process that highlights the natural beauty and durability of this wood species. After harvesting, we select the logs based on factors like size, grain & knot presence and overall quality. 

The pine lumber then undergoes kiln drying, a controlled process using heat and airflow to remove excess moisture. This is crucial for preventing warping, cracking, and ensuring dimensional stability in the final furniture piece. After drying, the lumber is passed through a planer to achieve a uniform thickness and smooth surface.

To elevate the aesthetic appeal, the pinewood undergoes a careful treatment process involving the multiple applications of water-based stains and finishes. Our skilled craftsmen carefully select stains that bring out the richness, inherent colour variations and grain patterns in the natural wood. Finally, a clear coat of lacquer is applied to protect the wood surface from moisture, stains, and everyday wear and tear.

Key Benefits

• Easy Maintenance: Pinewood is relatively easy to maintain. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth helps preserve the table's appearance, and refinishing or re-staining can be done occasionally to refresh its look over time.
• Straight Grain with Subtle Variations: While predominantly straight, the grain's subtle deviations create a dynamic and visually interesting surface. This avoids the monotony of perfectly uniform grain, adding depth and character to the wood.
• Resistant to Warping: The kiln-drying process of pinewood minimises its susceptibility to warping or cracking. This ensures that solid pinewood tables maintain a stable and structurally sound form over time, contributing to their long-lasting durability and reliability in everyday use.
• Protective Lacquer: Solid pinewood tables feature a protective lacquer coating that acts as a shield, resisting minor scratches, stains, and daily wear. This durable finish enhances the longevity of the tables, preserving their appearance and ensuring they withstand the demands of regular use while maintaining a well-maintained and polished look.
• Unique Grains and Variations: The inherent beauty of solid pinewood lies in its individualistic grains and variations. Each table becomes a one-of-a-kind piece, as the distinctive patterns, knots, and colour variations tell a unique story of the wood's natural growth, adding character and making every piece truly unique.

Care Guide

• Dust Regularly: Use a soft, dry cloth to regularly dust the surface of your pine wood furniture, preventing the buildup of dirt and debris.
• Spills and Stains: Address spills and stains promptly. Blot up any liquids with a clean, absorbent cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Cleaning Solution: For occasional deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution (like a few drops of dish soap in warm water). Apply the solution to a damp cloth, wring it out well to avoid excess moisture, and wipe down the table surface. Dry thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth.
• Protect from Heat and Moisture: While your pine dining table boasts a clear protective lacquer, it's still wise to use coasters or trivets for hot dishes and drinks to minimise the risk of heat damage and water rings. This simple practice helps preserve the table's pristine surface for years to come.

Matte Black Powder Coated Metal Base

Our matte black metal table bases are crafted from precision and care. We start by shaping top-quality metal to meet our design specifications, ensuring a seamless alignment. Electrostatically charged matte black powder coats the base, and a baking process at 400°F creates the elegant finish. Slow cooling ensures lasting durability, resulting in a sophisticated matte black table base that resists wear and corrosion.

Sizing Guide

• Space: Allow at least 90 cm (36 inches) of clearance between the table and the walls or other furniture to ensure comfortable seating and movement.
• Table Shape: For long rooms and open spaces, rectangular or oval tables often are the most natural fit, maximising space utilisation and creating a balanced look. Round or square tables can also work if you want to leave extra room for additional furniture pieces to complement your dining area. For smaller dining areas, round or square tables are often the ideal choice, promoting conversation and creating a sense of intimacy.
