Every table that Steve makes, whatever the height, shape or style can be created with an additional extendable table-leaf. A table-leaf is a board that can be attached to the end of the table to vary the size of the table itself. This traditional solution offers flexibility in seating whatever your requirements. It is especially convenient during the festive period for Christmas and New Year feasting with friends and family! When you can all get together around the table to celebrate it makes it that little bit extra special for you and all your guests.

If daily dining needs space for only a few people, but you want to have the option to invite more people over during the year too, an extendable table-leaf table is the perfect choice. Typically, a 450 mm long table-leaf adds space for another 2 people to your table top and in some instances, larger tables can accept 2 leaves so an additional 4 to 6 further spaces can be added for family style dining.

“Versatility, convenience, and ease are the three best reasons to choose a table-leaf for your dining table or kitchen table.”

This particular handmade English oak trestle table starts at just 1.8m by 1m but then using the two additional table-leaf expands it to an impressive 2.7m by 1m. At its smallest size you can sit 6 people comfortably while at it’s largest you can easily sit 12 people. With 5 each side and then 2 more using the ends. This truly does give you the chance to put on a really good spread for your guests.

Of course, it’s not just about the table, there’s the seating to consider too. Steve has an extensive range of handmade chairs and handmade benches available to order. They are beautifully designed to compliment your table. Steve can help you choose your chair or bench style taking into account construction, proportion, shape, material and decoration of your table and it’s surroundings.
