Rochdale Gray Dining Table

This table features a neutral, organic stone-like finish designed to provide a contemporary concrete aesthetic without the high maintenance or weight of solid concrete. While the finish is resilient, our expert care guides recommend protecting the surface by using coasters and placemats to prevent heat rings or scratches. For daily maintenance, a simple wipe-down with a soft cloth and mild soap is sufficient to keep the surface looking pristine.

Since customer assembly is required for this item, you have the opportunity to ensure all hardware is perfectly seated during the initial setup. To maintain long-term structural integrity, we recommend checking and tightening the bolts within the pedestal base periodically. This routine maintenance prevents the natural loosening that can occur as furniture settles, ensuring the table remains rock-solid for years of daily use.

To ensure a comfortable flow in your dining area, we recommend following the "Clearance Rule" by leaving a minimum of 36 inches between the edge of the table and the nearest wall or piece of furniture. For high-traffic walkways, a 48-inch clearance is preferred. Given this table's compact 53-inch width, it is an excellent choice for maintaining an open feel in smaller dining rooms while comfortably seating four guests.

The blocked pedestal base on this contemporary piece is a strategic design choice that maximizes legroom for all guests. Unlike traditional four-legged tables, where the legs can obstruct seating at the corners, a central pedestal allows chairs to be tucked in completely and gives guests more freedom of movement. This "visual lightness" is particularly beneficial in smaller footprints, as it prevents the room from feeling cluttered.

Yes, this dining table is specifically scaled for the spatial needs of urban apartment living. With a depth of 31.5 inches and a width of 53 inches, it provides a full dining experience for four people without overwhelming a limited floor plan. Its clean, straight lines and blocked design offer a modern look that complements high-density living spaces where every square inch counts.

This table is an ideal "crossover" piece for multi-functional homes. The 53-inch surface provides ample space for a laptop, monitor, and paperwork, while the standard 29.5-inch height aligns with ergonomic needs for most office chairs. The smooth, stone-like finish offers a level surface for writing, making it as effective for professional tasks as it is for contemporary dining.
