Description
A new addition to Says Who’s best-selling Kendal collection, this elegant wood dining table is exclusively available at Heal’s. The Kendal Dining Table is beautifully crafted using a combination of light solid oak and an oak veneer. The oak is oiled to enhance the wood’s grain and bring a natural warmth into any space. It’s this excellent quality that ensures this table will last a lifetime. Plus, the groove detailing on its statement-making base offers a tactile and unique finish. Pair it with the Kendal Sideboard for a coordinated contemporary look in your dining room.
Our Stylist Says
The Kendal Dining Table is a versatile piece that works well in both contemporary and classic interiors thanks to its clean lines and solid oak finish. I love how its understated elegance can anchor a dining space without overpowering it, making it suitable for both large family gatherings and more intimate dinners. For styling, consider pairing it with a mix of modern and vintage chairs to add personality or keep it minimalist with sleek, upholstered seating for a streamlined look. Practical tips include opting for a protective tablecloth or placemats to preserve the finish and arranging the table with a centrepiece like a simple vase or greenery to add a natural touch without cluttering the space. It’s a durable, timeless choice that provides a strong foundation for varied dining room styles.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
