angelica dining room with green side chairs

In its standard 78-inch configuration, this table comfortably accommodates six adults. When you use the included 18-inch extension leaf, the table expands to a total width of 96 inches, providing generous space to seat up to eight guests. This flexibility makes it an excellent choice for those who want a manageable everyday footprint that can still host larger family gatherings or dinner parties.

Yes, the contemporary silhouette and double pedestal base make this table an ideal anchor for modern homes or open-concept living areas. While it is a larger-scale piece at 78 inches, the pedestal base creates a lighter visual profile than a traditional four-leg table, which can help a room feel more open. Its ability to extend only when needed allows it to adapt to your lifestyle, whether you are in an urban apartment or a suburban dining room.

White oak is a dense hardwood celebrated for its strength and intricate grain patterns. By using a high-quality white oak veneer, this table offers the premium look and feel of solid wood while providing enhanced stability. Veneers are specifically engineered to be more resistant to the natural warping or cracking that can affect solid wood in response to seasonal humidity changes, ensuring a flat, beautiful surface for years to come.

The double pedestal design is highly functional for maximizing seating and comfort. Unlike tables with legs at each corner, a pedestal base eliminates the obstruction of corner posts, allowing for more fluid movement and much more legroom for your guests. This configuration also makes it easier to fit additional chairs along the sides or corners when the table is fully extended.

To ensure a comfortable flow for your guests, our experts recommend maintaining at least 36 inches of clearance between the table edge and the nearest wall or piece of furniture. Since this table is 40 inches deep and can extend up to 96 inches long, it is best suited for a dining room that is at least 10 feet wide and 14 feet long to ensure diners can easily pull out their chairs and walk behind one another.

Based on our expertise with fine wood furniture, we recommend regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth to preserve the rich brown finish. To prevent heat marks and moisture rings—which can be difficult to remove from wood veneers—always use coasters, placemats, or trivets. If a spill occurs, blot it immediately with a damp cloth and follow with a dry one; avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or wax polishes, as these can build up and dull the contemporary finish over time.
