Long Dining Room Tables with Leaves

Dining room tables are generally 6 feet long and extend to 10 - 12 ft with leaves. An ordinary mahogany pedestal table will sit on two pedestals. Most of the tables on this site would be considered a Duncan Phyfe dining table because they have fluted pedestals orginaly designed by Mr. Duncan Phyfe over 100 years ago.   10 ft tables are considered standard and 12 ft tables are large dining room tables or extra large dining tables.  Long dining room tables like this may have a third pedestal for extra support.  A 12 foot or 14 foot dining room table with three pedestals is called a triple pedestal table.  A long dining table, whether they have three pedestals or not, will have a heavier pedestals and stronger slides.  Most of the slides on our tables are American made and are made of steel. They are very strong slides and keep the table very sturdy. We even have a couple 16 foot dining tables available like the LH 16 which can be found in our extra large dining tables category.  

The industry standard finish on all dining tables is nitro-cellulose lacquer. This type of lacquer is glossy, perfectly clear, durable, and very resistant. Lacquer is the best protection for your mahogany dining table.
