Far from being a shrinking violet, this sizeable contemporary dining table puts the conversation at the centre, making those meals with friends even more of an occasion. Timeless and reliable, this piece distills the modern principles of design and effortlessly fits in your home. Expertly crafted from solid oak, this large dining table features chamfered edge detail, with a central pedestal-style base, and is finished with a clear lacquer that requires minimal maintenance, and allows the natural warmth of the wood to come though. Matthew Hilton worked as an industrial designer and model maker until 1984 when he set up his own design studio/workshop. Two years later he launched a series of shelves at the Milan Furniture Fair, and in 1991 he designed the Balzac Armchair, which was embraced as a modern classic. Since then, Hilton's work has taken on a less stylistic, more functional approach. Please note: not all our ranges are on display in our shops.
