Braxton Espresso Dining Table

This rectangular table is designed for versatility, comfortably seating six people in its standard 76-inch configuration. When the 18-inch leaf is inserted, the tabletop extends to 94 inches, providing ample space to accommodate up to eight guests, making it an ideal choice for hosting larger family gatherings or holiday dinners.

The sculptural double pedestal base on this table offers both aesthetic and practical advantages. Architecturally, it creates a sense of "visual lightness," which helps a room feel more open and less cluttered. Practically, a pedestal design maximizes legroom and seating flexibility, as there are no corner legs to obstruct chairs or guests’ knees, allowing you to easily adjust seating arrangements as needed.

To preserve the deep, refined espresso black finish, we recommend regular dusting with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. To protect the oak veneer from heat and moisture—which can cause "white rings" or clouding—always use coasters for beverages and trivets or placemats for hot dishes. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or wax-based polishes; instead, a slightly damp cloth followed immediately by a dry one is the best method for removing occasional spills.

To ensure a comfortable flow in your dining area, our spatial planning experts recommend maintaining a "clearance zone" of at least 36 to 48 inches between the edge of the table and the nearest wall or piece of furniture. Since this table extends to 94 inches with the leaf, a room dimension of approximately 11' x 15' would allow for comfortable movement and chair pull-out even when the table is fully extended.

Yes, oak is a premium hardwood known for its exceptional strength and dense grain, which makes it highly resistant to daily wear and tear. By using high-quality oak veneers over a stable core, this table gains the beautiful, consistent look of espresso-finished wood while being specifically engineered to resist the warping or cracking that can sometimes affect solid wood in environments with fluctuating humidity or temperature.

This table is the centerpiece of the Braxton collection, which is curated to create a cohesive, contemporary aesthetic. To complete your room, you can pair it with the matching Braxton Espresso arm chairs and side chairs, which mirror the table's sculptural lines. For additional storage and serving space, the Braxton Espresso server offers a coordinated solution that maintains the collection's sophisticated, unified style.
