Karel Dining Table 200×100

Karel, the space saving 8 seater

Meet Karel, the straight talking no nonsense table for those looking for a contemporary dining experience. Elegantly crafted from solid white oak and brushed metal the Karel is designed with longevity in mind. What makes the Karel extra special? It can seat 8 with a matching bench seat that tucks under the table. Perfect to place up against the wall when extra seating  is not required.

The Timber

Wood displays different grain patterns depending on which way they are cut – for example, the ‘medullary ray’ which can appear on oak furniture is a mark of good quality timber, these are just characteristics of the natural beauty of the wood.  All timber and veneer surfaces will change colour and mellow over time. New furniture will initially vary in shade from items that have been previously purchased.

Quality Assurance

Rigorously tested for correct measurements, colour, wood moisture (internals included), load bearing and construction strength.

Colour Accuracy

We try our best to ensure photography depicts colours as accurately as possible. Colours can appear different depending on the type of display you are viewing from, therefore we recommend viewing in person for true colour representation.

Care

Dust with a clean, damp, lint free cloth

Frequent dusting will remove abrasive build up, which can damage the finish over time

Do not use a very wet cloth or allow liquid to contact with the veneers for a long period of time as this can permanently damage the surface. Wipe up spills immediately

Do not use any abrasive cleaner or harsh detergent as this can damage the surface of the furniture

Spray polishes are best avoided as they contain silicones which may spoil the furniture’s surface when building up over time

Make sure all surfaces are protected from heat and liquids by mats and coasters

Ensure that a mat or pad is placed under paper when you are writing on the furniture surface

Do not place rubber or plastic materials on the wood finish as chemicals which may react with the finish if left in contact for an extended period of time

Our furniture will endure most temperatures in the home but it is best to avoid placing furniture next to heat sources such as radiators or fires. Be particularly careful with solid wood as the lack of humidity caused by home heating can cause damage such as warping, cracking or splitting

Excessive exposure to sunlight can cause fading of your furniture
