Description
This rustic style wooden table from our Greenwich range is sure to be a stunning feature piece in any light coloured dining room. Perfect for those who live in a smaller house but love to entertain, this table conveniently expands through the centre. The table top features a veneer oak marquetry top with a hand painted finish, while the 100% sustainable wood frame is coated in a sheen lacquer to help prevent scuffing and scratches. Pair this dining table with the matching oak chairs from the Greenwich range and top with a vase of fresh, bright flowers and you're ready to host a phenomenal dinner party.
Our Stylist Says
This dining table is a versatile piece that works well in both traditional and modern interiors. Its clean lines and two-tone finish make it adaptable, pairing beautifully with a range of chair styles and colours. I love how the mix of the natural wood top with the painted legs adds a timeless, relaxed elegance. For practical styling, consider layering with a runner or placemats for everyday use, and dress it up with a statement centrepiece or colourful tableware for special occasions. It’s ideal for casual family dinners as well as more refined dinner parties, making it a highly functional and stylish choice.

History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
