The award-winning Cross Extending Dining Table by Matthew Hilton is a fine example of advanced wood manufacturing techniques. The elegant lines of this modern design create a distinctly up-to-date piece which is practical and adaptable. Made from solid wood with a veneered chamfered edged top, it has two extendable leaves (each 50cm) to seat up to 14 members of the family around it. The table can be extended to three sizes (2m, 2.5m and 3m) so you can accommodate any occasion. It’s comfortably large, yet retains a visual balance due to the proportions of the table top. The functional design of the base is sturdy, handsome and built for multiple uses.
Matthew Hilton has been intimately associated with the revival of the British Furniture Design scene in recent years. His involvement with ercol and, for example, the stunning Treviso desk showcases his love for classic design features.
