Bohde Brown Dining Table

For optimal comfort and traffic flow, we recommend the "Clearance Rule" of leaving at least 36 inches between the edge of this 47.5-inch table and the nearest wall or furniture. For a more spacious feel in high-traffic areas, 48 inches of clearance is preferred. This ensures guests can pull out their chairs and navigate the room without obstruction.

A pedestal base, like the brass-finished one on this table, is an excellent choice for maximizing legroom. Because it eliminates the four corner legs found on traditional tables, it allows for more flexible seating arrangements and ensures guests don't have to "straddle" a table leg. Additionally, the centered base provides a sense of "visual lightness," which can make a dining area feel more open and less cluttered.

A round table is often the preferred choice for safety-conscious parents. Unlike rectangular or square tables that have sharp 90-degree corners at head-height for toddlers, the continuous curved edge of this table significantly reduces the risk of accidental bumps and bruises, making it a "family-proof" addition to your home.

Yes, this 47.5-inch round table is specifically designed to excel in compact urban spaces and cozy nooks. Its circular shape facilitates better social flow and fits into tight corners more efficiently than rectangular models. The combination of a natural ash top and a slender pedestal base helps the piece "disappear" visually, preventing a small room from feeling cramped.

Ash is a dense, resilient hardwood known for its high shock resistance and durability. The natural ash top of this table is ideal for daily use, as it stands up well to the rigors of family meals. In humid or coastal climates, hardwood like ash is valued for its strength, though we recommend maintaining a consistent indoor environment to preserve the wood’s integrity over time.

Based on our furniture care expertise, we recommend dusting the surface regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For minor spills or stains, use a cloth dampened with mild soap and water, then dry immediately to prevent moisture from affecting the wood grain. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasives, especially on the brass-finished pedestal, to ensure the protective coating remains intact and glowing.

Yes, customer assembly is required for this specific table. While our full-service delivery team handles the setup for many large items, certain pieces—including many of our contemporary pedestal tables—are delivered in their original packaging to ensure they arrive in pristine condition. All necessary hardware and instructions are included for straightforward home assembly.
