Kaarna Oval — Marble & Solid Teak Dining Table

An oval dining table pairing a single slab of grey-veined natural marble with a solid teak base. The top is one continuous oval — silver-white stone with soft grey veining, honed to a matte, tactile surface — floating above a warm, honey-toned teak structure. No visible hardware, no applied detail: just the contrast between cool stone and warm wood.

The base is a cross-trestle in solid teak — angled legs converging on a central column, braced by a low horizontal stretcher, the joinery left exposed and load-bearing in the mid-century Scandinavian workshop tradition. At 200 × 120 cm the oval seats four to six everyday and up to eight when filled; the rounded ends remove the hierarchy of a rectangle — no head of the table, no dead corner seats — and the trestle keeps the long sides clear for chairs.

The marble is honed rather than polished, so it reads matte and natural; sealed and cared for it resists staining and ages by deepening in character. The teak is left in a natural oiled finish and warms further with use. Because each top is cut from a different slab, no two Kaarna tops share the same veining — relevant when specifying a piece that should read as individual within a project.

Assembled by hand in small batches and made to order. Dimensions can be adjusted, alternative marbles or a darker wood specified, and the piece adapted for residential or contract use. Trade and project quotations available.
