Embrace Balanced Proportions in Natural Ash
This round ash veneer table is sized for four: a 120 cm diameter gives each place setting real elbow room while keeping the far edge within reach. Ash is prized for its long straight figure and pale honey tone, and the natural finish leaves that colour open rather than sealing it beneath a tint. Below the top, the legs are turned to different diameters, a contemporary detail that stops the base looking mechanical and gives the piece a hand-drawn quality when seen from across the room. Nothing about the profile shouts, which is precisely the point.
The panels are E0 manufactured wood, a classification that caps formaldehyde emissions at the strictest commercial level, so the table adds very little to the air of a closed dining room. Engineered cores also move less than solid boards through a British winter of dry central heating followed by a damp spring, which is what keeps a large circle flat. The design is an exclusive Kave Home creation, and because the veneer is sliced from real timber, every top carries its own tones and grain and cannot be duplicated.
