At Neptune, our oak dining tables are handcrafted from solid timber to bring enduring strength, character, and lasting quality to the heart of your home.
Each dining table design has a unique character and charm. Arundel feels grounded, with its strong trestle base offering a reassuring sense of permanence. Stratford is more sculptural, with clean lines that make a quiet statement. Sheldrake introduces gentle curves that work beautifully in both traditional and more modern settings.
Balmoral brings scale and presence, ideal for larger rooms, while Harrogate is more classic in feel, simple, familiar, and versatile. Wycombe, with its slim, tapered legs and refined style, offers a more contemporary approach that suits open, more informal spaces.
Whether it's a kitchen or dining room, these tables are made for everyday life, easy to care for, and built to last a lifetime.
Choose a dining table based on your room size, how many people you need to seat, and the style that suits your home. Measure your dining room to ensure at least 90cm of clearance around the table for comfortable movement.
Consider the shape – rectangular tables suit longer rooms, while round tables work well in square spaces. Prioritise quality materials like solid oak that will age well. Think about whether you need an extendable option for entertaining. The best dining table balances practical needs with timeless design.
Most oak dining tables are protected with a treatment, which repels water and spills. Neptune oak dining tables are coated with IsoGuard®. To maintain your oak dining table, wipe up any liquid spilt promptly to prevent staining. Regular dusting with a dry e-cloth keeps wooden surfaces clean, whilst a damp cloth removes tougher marks.
For deeper cleaning, use our surface soap, specially formulated for the IsoGuard® finish. Avoid standard furniture cleaners, as these may damage the protective coating. If tannin marks appear from damp mugs, our tannin spot remover lifts these stains effectively. Refresh oak dining tables every couple of years using our oak care kit and treatment oil.
Oak dining tables work beautifully with both wooden and upholstered chairs, depending on your preferred look. For cohesion, choose wooden chairs in a similar tone – light oak tables suit natural or pale finishes, while dark oak pairs well with richer woods. Upholstered dining chairs in linen or leather add comfort and softness. Mix materials for interest by combining a wooden bench on one side with upholstered chairs opposite.
Dining benches offer flexible seating and work particularly well for families. Ensure chair heights suit your table for comfortable dining.
To dress a dining table, start with a table runner or linen tablecloth as your foundation, then layer with placemats and cloth napkins for everyday elegance. Add a centrepiece, such as faux flowers in a vase, or seasonal greenery, to create a focal point. For a large dining table, arrange items in groups of three or five down the centre for balance.
Keep styling practical, leaving space for serving dishes during meals. Quality tableware and glassware elevate everyday dining, while a wooden bowl with fruit or decorative objects adds warmth between meals.
