Room & Board Chilton Dining Table

A live-edge table retains the natural, irregular contour of the tree's outer edge rather than being cut into a straight, uniform line. Because of this, the width of the table may vary slightly along its length, giving it an organic, one-of-a-kind silhouette.

The butterfly joints are inlaid pieces of wood that bridge natural splits or knots in the walnut slab. They serve a functional purpose by preventing these natural fissures from expanding over time, while also adding a distinct decorative detail.

As a piece that is over three years old, you should expect minor signs of use consistent with a solid wood surface. While the construction remains sturdy, there may be light surface character marks that contribute to the table's unique history.

An 84-inch table typically accommodates six to eight people comfortably, depending on the width of your dining chairs. The organic shape may slightly influence legroom at the ends, so consider your chair footprint when planning your seating.

Solid wood benefits from consistent humidity levels to prevent shrinking or swelling. We recommend using coasters and placemats to protect the finish, and wiping the surface with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its natural luster.
