A little guidance
Dining furniture
questions, answered.
From fitting a table to your room to choosing the finishing details, start here.
How much room should I leave around a dining table?
The existing Oakwright guide recommends at least three feet of clearance on all sides. Check chair depth, nearby furniture, and the way people move through the room.
How many people can each table size seat?
As a guide, a six-foot table seats about six, an eight-foot table about eight, and a 48-inch round table about four. Actual seating depends on chair widths, base placement, and your preferred spacing.
Which woods and finishes can I choose?
The table catalog lists hickory, oak, and walnut. Stains include Dark Walnut, Early American, Kona, Provincial, and Special Walnut. Available options are listed on each product page.
How do I compare different finishes?
Choose all table options to reveal the full-table preview for your top style, stain, and base finish. The room gallery stays available for styling ideas. Exact color depends on wood; grain and proportions vary with your chosen wood and size.
Are the chairs also made from scratch?
Our coordinating chairs are purchased assembled, then stained or painted to complement your table. Chair seats are always stained wood.
How do I order?
Choose your furniture or handcrafted goods and review your cart. Checkout confirms available fulfillment, shipping, tax, estimated completion and ordering terms before secure payment. Furniture and Crafted by Oakwright need separate checkouts. Finish the Look accessories use a separate secure supplier checkout.
Can I book an appointment or send a message?
Use the listed email or phone number to discuss an appointment. The contact form saves your inquiry in the Oakwright platform for review. The custom-project form sends your ideas to Bill for review; it does not create an appointment or order.
What about delivery, production times, and returns?
Pickup is by appointment. Crafted by Oakwright parcel shipping is calculated at checkout before payment; furniture and Crafted items require separate checkouts. Your order summary confirms its estimated completion window and terms. Read our Delivery, Shipping & Pickup and Returns & Order Changes pages for the established policies.
How should I care for solid wood furniture?
Keep it in a stable indoor environment. Wipe up water promptly, protect it from sustained heat and direct sunlight, and use coasters or protective pads. Confirm care products against the actual finish before use.
