The Auren dining table has a rounded-rectangle top on two closed loop legs. It works as a dining table or a large desk.
Depth comes with the length
You choose the length, and the depth comes with it. There is no separate width option.
All four sizes stand 29.5 in (75 cm) tall. The 55.1 in (140 cm) table is 31.5 in (80 cm) deep, and the 78.7 in (200 cm) is 35.4 in (90 cm).
We don't publish a seat count for the Auren. Lay your chairs out on the floor at the size you want before you order.
Two places for the legs
Each end stands on a closed loop of solid walnut. The loop is 1.6 × 3.5 in (4 × 9 cm) in section, with corners rounded like the top.
The loops have two positions. At 7.9 in (20 cm) from the ends, people can sit at the ends. At 0.8 in (2 cm), there's more open room underneath, so two people can work side by side.
Even in that outer position the legs sit 0.8 in (2 cm) in, so the table can stand against a wall.
A frame instead of an apron
There's no apron. A central frame under the top takes its place, which leaves more legroom. The underside of the top is 28.0 in (71 cm) off the floor.
Steel bars are set into the underside of the top. The two shorter sizes have two, and the 70.9 and 78.7 in (180 and 200 cm) tables have three.
Solid wood cross rails run under it too, with gaps that let the wood expand and shrink.
Boards, edges and a floating look
We glue the top up from 5 to 8 wide boards, matched for color and grain. Its edge is 1.6 in (4 cm) thick, and the corners and edges are rounded.
The legs meet the top set slightly back from the edge, so the top seems to float. We kiln-dry the lumber to 8 to 10% moisture content.
Every wooden part is solid wood, and the walnut is solid American black walnut. It's Appalachian FAS-grade walnut, finished in hardwax oil.
The oil resists water but isn't waterproof. Wipe spills promptly, and use a coaster or trivet under hot or wet things.
Ordering the Auren
We make each Auren to order. Production takes 6 to 10 weeks, and it reaches you about 10 to 18 weeks after you order.
Standard shipping is free across the contiguous United States, excluding remote areas. You have 90 days after receiving your order to request a return. Custom dimensions, custom finishes and special-order modifications are not eligible for return.
