Not all tables are equal. In the search for a dining table, we have met frustration with the lack of solid wood choices and clean, classic designs. The Slab Table by Tom Dixon is solid oak and the design is so simple it's beautiful.

We love the shape of the legs, the rounded edges of the tabletop and the solid oak construction that's made to last. Now, that's a table!

Any of you Tom Dixon fans know where to buy the pendant lamps in his 'Beat' series in the US? Couldn't get a response to my inquiry on his website and DWR doesn't carry them. Hmmm...
It looks like the table has a slightly glossy finish, so I'd guess the texture is coated with something. No cleanup worries...
Us Canadians are at work today, so I thought I'd post about the dining room table that my husband and I just bought.
The Union dining table from Cabinet in Toronto. www.cabinetfurniture.ca
It's solid maple, with extensions that slide in at either end.
The price was reasonable, made by a 3rd generation woodworker, in Canada.
We looked high and low for a table and are very happy we chose this one in the end.
De La Espada also makes solid wood dining tables. They are gorgeous. Check out "starfish"

This table is so beautiful. I like it! Woderful!
Vanessa, any clues on pricing on those tables? I'm in love with the Starfish now...
