Description
This sturdy dining table from our Brookland range is extendable up to 190cm, giving you the option to easily accomodate extra guests for dinner parties or family lunches, it also works well for when you want a bit more space for working from home. It has a real oak-veneer finish and dark metal detailing for an on-trend industrial-chic aesthetic that will work in any room.
Our Stylist Says
The M&S Brookland extender table is a versatile piece that works well in both contemporary and more industrial-inspired interiors. Its black mix legs combined with the natural wood top create a balanced look that adds warmth to darker or neutral schemes. I love using it in open-plan dining areas or kitchens where flexibility is key, as the extension feature allows for easy seating adjustments. To style it, consider pairing with minimalist chairs for a clean, modern vibe, or introduce textured textiles and coloured accessories for a cosy, eclectic feel. Practical tips include keeping the surface clear for everyday use and adding a runner or placemats when entertaining to protect the wood surface while adding visual interest.

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.
