Choosing the right dining table seems simple enough, until you start measuring your space, taking into account all of the little details, and daydreaming about hosting dinner parties. We get it. It can feel a bit overwhelming to figure out exactly what size of dining table you should get, or what style would look best in your dining area or eat-in kitchen. 

You’ll want to choose a dining table that complements your space and feels functional. And of course, you should opt for a piece of furniture that is built-to-last and sturdy.

When you’re looking for a custom table, whether it be for your dining room or your boardroom, it’s helpful to know what type of wood you’d prefer your furniture to be built with. Part of the beauty of commissioning a custom wood table after all is getting to select your wood species. But with so many options, it can be difficult to choose.

You’ve probably heard the term “butcher block”. We’ve seen a lot of confusion around this wording. At some point in time, many people started calling any solid wood tables or countertops “butcher block”. (Not to point fingers or anything, but we’re thinking it may have been thanks to Ikea) There is a difference between the two, and treating your counter the same way you would a butcher block could result in long term damage to the wood. So, we think it’s important to make the distinction.
