Choosing a dining table is an investment in the heart of your home, which is why the raw material and craftsmanship detail are crucial. At Mowoodwork, we focus on solid wood with a noble character. We offer timeless, durable oak, elegant walnut, and unique, ecological models made from reclaimed wood. Each of these materials guarantees stability and unique graining. Pay attention to the tabletop thickness, which we match to the style: thinner 19 mm tops are ideal for light, Scandinavian forms, while 35 mm (and thicker, e.g., 40 mm) serve as the foundation for massive, loft, and industrial constructions. Remember also the importance of the right finish - natural oils or protective lacquers - to ensure the wood serves you for years.

When selecting a table, consider both ergonomics and design. Think about whether a round table (fostering conversation at the table) or a rectangular table (making better use of available space) will work best in your setting, allowing a minimum of 60 cm width per person. Our selection includes a wide range of styles: from the warm Scandinavian style, through rustic models, to bold, modern forms with a loft character. A true solid wood table is a piece of furniture that combines functionality with character and becomes the center of family life for years.

The choice of the ideal table shape depends on the room's function and the available space.

• Rectangular: The most efficient shape, ideal for long dining rooms and large families. It maximizes the number of seats.
• Square: Good for smaller, intimate interiors or as a central accent in a modern kitchen.
• Round or Oval: Softens the arrangement and is the most conducive to communication and easy movement. Ideal for open, flowing spaces.

Regardless of the form, the raw material is most important. Choose solid oak or walnut wood, which guarantees durability and timeless aesthetics. Pay attention to the proportions and the thickness of the tabletop - these are the elements that ensure the chosen shape not only looks good but also harmoniously fits into your daily life and serves for generations.

Yes - it is an ideal, functional solution that allows you to save space daily while providing flexibility for hosting family and friends. An extendable dining table (rectangular or round) allows you to fully utilize the potential of a smaller space without compromising on design.

However, the quality of construction is key. At Mowoodwork, we ensure the mechanism is just as solid and durable as the thick, solid wood top. Check the precision of the runners and ensure the tabletops (including the extension leaves) are made from solid wood with appropriate thickness (e.g., 35 mm or more). Only such a model will guarantee stability and a consistent, handcrafted aesthetic for years to come.

An American Walnut dining table is the choice for connoisseurs who prioritize exclusivity and depth. Unlike light oak, walnut stands out with its unique, deep, warm colour and distinctive, dynamic grain pattern. This natural elegance lends the interior a luxurious character that perfectly contrasts with minimalist, loft, or light Scandinavian arrangements, instantly becoming the primary and most noble focal point in the room.

Compared to furniture made with veneer or board materials, a solid walnut table is an investment in durability and individuality. It is a stable and robust wood, though it requires regular, gentle care (especially oiling) to maintain the colour intensity and protect the surface. True solid walnut introduces unique warmth, depth, and an authentic, handcrafted character to the dining room or living room, which beautifully matures with time.

Caring for solid wood is all about two key principles: regular protection and the ability to regenerate. Daily care simply requires gentle dusting and wiping the surface with a damp, soft cloth. Absolutely avoid harsh chemical agents and hot dishes - always use coasters to protect the finish.

If your table is oiled or waxed, remember to perform self-maintenance to replenish the protective layer (every 6–12 months). This involves applying a new layer of oil or wax, which nourishes the wood and safeguards it against moisture. Most importantly, a solid wood top can always be sanded and refinished, removing deeper signs of wear. This is the greatest advantage of solid wood, ensuring its longevity and the ability to restore its original beauty.
