Neoclassical White and Gold Dining Table
At OE-FASHION Furniture, we resolve the structural challenges of large banquet tables through modular engineering. The Neoclassical White and Gold Dining Table utilises a triple-pedestal configuration, distributing the load of the heavy glass surface evenly across the floor span. This design is specifically calibrated for formal dining halls where seating capacity and visual grandeur are paramount.
Aesthetic Structure & Proportions
The table features a continuous oval rim that frames a large expanse of transparent glass. Unlike solid-top tables, this transparency reveals the rhythm of the three supporting pedestals, creating a dialogue between the tabletop and the floor. The ornamental language adheres to Neoclassical design principles, utilising acanthus-leaf scrolls and volutes to articulate the vertical load paths.
Construction Logic & Material Behaviour
The rim is constructed from laminated bentwood, ensuring the oval geometry remains stable without warping under the lateral pressure of the glass. The glass itself is toughened (tempered) for safety and sits on vibration-dampening silicone pads integrated into the rim rebate.
- Base Architecture: Each pedestal acts as an independent tripod, reinforced with a central steel column. This open-work “cage” design provides extreme stability while appearing visually lighter than a solid block base.
- Surface Finish: The wood elements undergo a 7-stage finishing process, culminating in a pearl white lacquer and hand-applied 24k gold leaf. Review our gold leaf application guide for maintenance details.
- Modularity: The table is engineered to break down into five primary components (3 bases, 1 rim, 1 glass sheet) to facilitate entry into residential elevators and narrow corridors.
Functional Integration & Ergonomics
The pedestal placement is calculated to ensure no guest has to straddle a table leg. The 3500mm reference length comfortably accommodates 12–14 diners. The use of a glass top also simplifies maintenance, as it is impervious to wine spills and heat rings that would damage a veneered surface.
Installation & Project Constraints
Glass Handling: The glass top is extremely heavy (approx. 120kg for this span). Installation requires a team of four handlers or mechanical suction lifters. Site access must be verified for the full length of the glass if it is a single piece (split-glass options available).
Bespoke Manufacturing (OEM / ODM)
OE-FASHION Furniture provides comprehensive customisation for project specifications.
- Length Scaling: The design can be reduced to a double-pedestal (2400mm) or extended to a quad-pedestal (4500mm) format.
- Top Options: The glass can be replaced with a solid marble slab or decorative wood parquet if preferred.
- Chair Matching: We offer the matching balloon-back chairs with custom velvet upholstery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the glass top clear or frosted?
A: The standard specification is ultra-clear (low-iron) glass to maximise the visibility of the gold detailing below. Bronze-tinted or frosted glass is available on request.
Q: Can the table length be customized?
A: Yes. We use a modular mould system for the rim, allowing us to adjust the length in 500mm increments by adding or removing pedestal sections.
Q: How do I clean the gold leaf areas?
A: The gold leaf is sealed, but we recommend dusting with a soft dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water on the gilded frame.
