Description
Bringing practicality and modern style to mealtimes, the Penton extending dining table features a striking design that is sure to impress. A rusty iron finish gives the table top a serving of urban character, whilst black metal legs finish the look with a bold edge. Fully extendable, the table can be lengthened to accommodate extra guests, then easily shrunk back down to save on space. It looks stunning set against a wide range of chairs, too - choose plush velvet for a glamourous feel, contemporary metal to bring out its industrial side, or create stunning contrast with classic leather or wood.
Our Stylist Says
The Penton Exending Table is a versatile choice for both modern and contemporary interiors, thanks to its sleek design and practical extension feature. I love how its understated charm allows it to fit seamlessly into various décor styles, from minimalist to industrial. It works particularly well with clean-lined chairs or even a mix of statement pieces for a more eclectic look. For styling tips, consider keeping the tabletop uncluttered to highlight the material’s texture, and add an eye-catching centrepiece or a set of colourful placemats for everyday dining. Its extendable function makes it ideal for hosting family gatherings or dinner parties, while still maintaining a compact footprint during the week.

A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
