The Grove Dining Table is handmade and produced made to order, built with a precise sandwich construction of slender ash wood slats that creates a strong yet remarkably light structure. Each element is cut, layered, and finished by hand, allowing the natural rhythm of the wood to remain visible. The tactile matte finish reveals not only craftsmanship, but also the calm, familiar presence of a table meant for everyday rituals.
H x 72cm – L x 220cm – W 90cm
Measured at 72 cm in height, 220 cm in length, and 90 cm in width, the table is carefully proportioned to seat more than eight people comfortably. Beneath the tabletop, a precisely spaced system of ribs forms a structural grid that distributes load efficiently while keeping the design visually light. This grid also introduces a subtle functional intelligence: its rhythm naturally indicates where dining chairs return after use, guiding placement without enforcing it. The result is a table that remains orderly by design, combining functional clarity with an inviting openness a surface scaled for long dinners, shared work sessions, and the quiet choreography of people gathering and returning to the table.
The design draws from a childhood living across an orchard a place of labour, stacked wooden crates, and rows of trees that shaped an early fascination with structure. This memory translates directly into the table’s construction: the legs echo crate-building logic, while the ribbed underside recalls the spacing and rhythm of orchard lines. OLD GROVE YARD is both a technical reference and a personal story, grounding the table in a sense of origin and belonging.
Crafted from European FSC-certified ash wood, the table offers durability, stability, and a warm visual grain. The matte brown linoleum top enhances everyday use with its soft tactility and subtle acoustic benefits. All wooden elements are finished with matte oil to protect the fibres while keeping the material honest and expressive. Together, these choices create a balanced composition, practical in use, refined in its surroundings.
Originally designed for a future-forward family home in the Netherlands, the table was intended to serve as the central point of connection. Its robust construction and warm tactility make it suitable for daily use, from family dinners to creative work and quiet morning routines. Commissioned with care, it demonstrates how thoughtful construction and personal narrative can merge into an object that strengthens the heart of a home.
