we searched high and low for quality, design statement round dining table that was under 10k. Our search led us all around town and to RH, Ligne Roset, DWR - you name it. Either it was too simple , poor quality or wayyy too expensive. Truly impressed with this table and the only thing i dont like is that we have chairs around it to block the center column which is the show stopper. our designer is also very complimentary of the finish (she knows far more about these things than i do). Thank you Maiden for a beautiful product and service to match!
