The Amish House Sara Ann Trestle Table

The Sara Ann table uses a traditional removable leaf system. To extend the table, you separate the tabletop halves and insert the leaves, which are secured to ensure a stable, level surface.

Brown Maple is your best choice for a smooth, uniform finish. It has a tight, subtle grain that takes stains very evenly, making it ideal if you prefer a sleek, contemporary look over the prominent character of woods like Oak or Quartersawn White Oak.

The trestle base is designed to be set back from the edges, which maximizes clearance. You should have ample room to pull chairs up to the ends of the table without hitting the base structure.

To protect the solid wood, keep the table away from direct heat sources and maintain consistent humidity levels in your home. Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning and avoid harsh chemical cleaners that can strip the finish.

Typically, these tables are crafted from a single wood species to ensure the stain takes uniformly across all components. Mixing wood types can result in noticeable color and grain variations between the top and the base.

No, this model is built at a fixed standard dining height. It is designed to pair perfectly with standard dining chairs, which typically have a seat height of 18 inches.
