Dining Table Set in Black and Gold Carved Teak with Chairs

The base of this table is set well inside the edge of the top, and the reason is chairs.

A dining table is judged, in daily use, by whether every seat is comfortable - and the seats that are not comfortable are always the ones where someone's knee finds a leg. On a table with legs at the corners, the two people at each end are fine and the ones sitting at the corners are not.

A shaped base solves it, but only if it is set out from the seating rather than from the table. So the working drawing for a set like this starts with the chairs: their positions are marked around the oval at the spacing you want, then the base is drawn inside all of them, with the end sections pulled far enough in that no chair pushed under the top meets anything.

The top overhang is set from the same drawing - generous enough for a chair to tuck fully under, without becoming so wide that the top looks to be floating off its base.

Change the chair count and that drawing changes, which is why we ask for it before anything is cut.

Material: solid teak in the table top, base, apron, feet and in every chair frame.

Table top: oval, with a decorated centre panel inside a black moulded border and a gilt edge line.

Table base: shaped end sections with lattice panels, joined by a deep carved apron, on carved scrolled feet, set inboard so chairs tuck fully under.

Chairs: oval upholstered backs in carved gilt frames, upholstered seats, carved seat rails and cabriole legs.

Finish: black with gold applied by hand to the carved work throughout.

Made to order: table length and width, chair count, top treatment, upholstery and finish are all customisable. Custom sizes made to order - final measurements confirmed in writing before production.

Every piece in the set is packed as its own item.

The table top travels flat, face protected with acid-free tissue against the finish, then foam sheet, then a rigid board across the whole surface, with the gilt edge line channelled in foam along its full perimeter.

The base travels separately, with the carved apron and the scrolled feet individually foam-blocked.

Each chair is wrapped individually - upholstery in breathable cloth and soft polythene, the carved gilt back frame and the legs in tissue and shaped foam - and crated so that no two chairs touch.

All crates are hardwood, corner-protected and marked for orientation and lift points.

Multi-layer protective packaging is included on every order at no extra cost.

Delivery is free anywhere in India, with guaranteed dent-free arrival. There is no distance charge, no size charge and no per-item handling fee, however many chairs are in the set.

Production begins once your table size, chair count and coverings are confirmed in writing - and the chair count matters structurally here, since the base is drawn inside the seating positions.

We photograph your actual set through the build: the base, the top, the carving, the black and gold finish, the chairs upholstered, and the set assembled together before packing.

On site, our team assembles the table, levels it, and places the chairs.

Send us lift dimensions, stair turns and doorway widths ahead of dispatch - the top is the piece to measure for. Every photograph on this page is of the actual product, not a render.

The solid teak frames and joinery carry a 20-year warranty across the whole set - the table top, its base and apron, and every chair frame, along with all the joints between them.

A lifetime warranty against termite damage runs with the set and never expires. Teak's natural oils are its own defence and our warranty stands behind them.

Chair upholstery, seat platforms and hardware are covered against manufacturing defect.

Dining chairs are the most heavily used furniture in any house, so their frames are built and guaranteed with that in mind. The upholstery and the black and gold finish are recorded against your order number, so additional chairs can be made later to match the set exactly. Contact us and we will arrange it.
