Architecturally, the Regency Burl Walnut Dining Table with Marquetry Inlay resolves its massive scale through a “clipped-corner” (chamfered) geometry, which softens the visual impact of the rectangular footprint and improves circulation flow at the perimeter. The table load is distributed through six heavy-duty fluted legs, turned from solid timber and accented with gilded capitals, ensuring a rigid platform devoid of central deflection.
Aesthetic & Proportion Analysis
The tabletop articulates a complex visual hierarchy. The primary field features highly figured Burl Walnut, book-matched to create a kaleidoscope of organic grain. This is framed by a broad border of contrasting darker veneer, inlaid with a continuous floral arabesque in lighter Satinwood. The matching chairs provide a chromatic counterpoint, utilizing high-density olive green velvet to contrast against the warm, amber tones of the wood. The chair crests feature hand-carved floral motifs that echo the table’s apron decoration.
Material Engineering & Construction Logic
The high-gloss “piano finish” is achieved through a poured polyester resin process, buffed to a 100% sheen. This not only enhances the chatoyancy of the burl grain but provides a heat-and-moisture resistant hermetic seal.
- Substrate: MDF and Marine Plywood composite to eliminate hygroscopic movement that could crack the veneer.
- Joinery: Double-bolted leg assemblies for detachable transport and rigid re-assembly.
- Upholstery: Sprung webbing suspension in the chairs for long-duration dining comfort.
Spatial Integration
This suite is calibrated for grand formal dining rooms or executive boardrooms. The extensive length (3.5m+) demands a room length of at least 5.5 meters to allow for service clearance. The high reflectivity of the table surface acts as a light multiplier, reflecting chandeliers to enhance the verticality of the space.
OEM / Bespoke Services
- Upholstery substitution (e.g., Cream Jacquard or Navy Leather).
- Veneer matching (Ebony, Mahogany, or Ash Burl).

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: How resistant is the high-gloss finish to scratching?
A: The polyester finish is significantly harder than standard lacquer, similar to an automotive clear coat. However, we recommend using felt-bottomed centerpieces to preserve the mirror-like optical quality. - Q: Can the chair upholstery be changed to a customer’s own material (COM)?
A: Yes. We require approximately 2.5 meters of fabric per chair. The frames are constructed to allow for easy reupholstery in the future if design tastes change. - Q: How is such a large table shipped?
A: The table top is crated in a vertical position with reinforced edge protection, while the legs are packed separately. Assembly requires two technicians to bolt the legs into the pre-threaded metal inserts.
