The Rio Dining Table comes in either a rectangular or round configuration, letting you choose the silhouette that fits your room. The reeded pedestal gives the base a sculptural presence while keeping the visual weight centered, so chairs pull cleanly around all sides. Each top is built from a two-ply solid wood veneer — a construction choice made as much for sustainability as for craftsmanship. Only a thin layer of real hardwood is needed to capture the same rich grain character found in natural wood planks, conserving precious hardwood resources with every table we build. The core beneath is crafted from reclaimed material left over from the milling process, material that would otherwise go to waste. That engineered core also gives the top a stability solid wood can't match on its own, resisting the cupping, warping, and cracking that comes with seasonal humidity swings. The visible surface is then expertly finished for resistance to everyday stains and wear, so it holds up beautifully even after decades of dining.
