For the slightly larger kitchen, this is a very good looking, solid oak table - with a chunky look. The grain pattern of the solid oak planks has been cleverly used to give a patterned surface.

Dimensions (in mm): 760h x 900d x 1320/1920w (that's around 2' 11'' wide by 4' 4'' long, extending to 6' 4'' when the leaves are added). The leaves are stored inside the table when not in use and the finish is very practical lacquer.
