The Expanding Round Table: A Symbol of Quality and Elegance

Bulb Base

Craftsmanship and Attention to Detail

Seamless collaboration between designers, architects, and artisans paves the way for exceptional creations. An expert expanding round table requires harmonious aesthetics and function for the most structurally sound piece of art.

A sole craftsman will attend to the creation of your expanding round table. Adhering to this design process allows for greater attention to detail and consistency. Each component is meticulously crafted according to your selections and preferences. Your expanding round table isn’t finalized until you’re satisfied.

Timeless Design and Aesthetic Appeal

Each portion of your expanding round table is authentically made with genuine hardwood and hand-crafted designs. The natural beauty of your table is classic and everlasting as trends come and go.

Features and Customization Options

We offer the 4-Leaf Clover Table and 8-Leaf Lotus Table to our customers. While the 4-Leaf looks great with four chairs, it has the potential to fit up to 11 people, and the 8-Leaf up to 15.

Likewise, you’ll have different options to choose from for your table’s wood, base, top design, and finish. Our designs have a standard starting price and add-ons for additional material and time.

Standard Materials Included in the Starting Price

Wood SelectionsBasesTop DesignsFinishes
WalnutThe BallStraight-GrainA two-part custom color toning and/or glaze.
CherryThe CaporasoA multiple-coat flat or satin conversion varnish top coat.

Barn Wood, and more

Our tables’ mechanism of expansion design allows for easy access to expanding and collapsing. Our hinged and hidden leaves quickly expand or contract for the appropriate occasion. They also possess a locking carousel to allow you to spin your table during expansion and collapse for greater convenience.

The Economics of Quality Furniture

Long-Term Durability vs. Short-Term Savings

Unfortunately, many tables nowadays are designed with cheaper materials in order to lower manufacturing costs. This may result in more affordability but a much shorter lifespan. 

Lotus Woodworks takes pride in our excellent craftsmanship and use of long-lasting, high-quality materials. We want your expanding round table to last throughout generations, which means using only the best of the best. Investing in your expanding round table means choosing the finest design made with pride.

Benefits for Wealthy Residential Homeowners

A Statement Piece in Luxury Living

The table is often the heart of any given room. Whether you place your expanding round table in your kitchen, dining room, or living room, the meticulous design and prime materials will match the rest of your home’s elegance, maximizing its luxurious appearance.

Adaptability to Various Spaces and Needs

With modern luxury enhanced by traditional craftsmanship, the expanding round table is a trend-setting innovation. Modern living looks to minimalistic design trends that create more space for movement in the home. With an expanding round table, there is an increase in maximum space efficiency.

Our expanding round tables can sit as few as four people when collapsed and as many as fifteen when expanded, depending on your chosen table. Because of this, you’ll be able to accommodate both small and large gatherings without a lack of room or table space.

The Experience of Owning High-End Furniture

Comfort and Functionality

Unique in nature, luxury is in the eye of the beholder. But one theme has remained the same across popular trending designs- prioritizing the homeowner’s comfort. Many tables are made with a greater focus on comfort or functionality. Our tables balance optimal comfort with performance so that you don’t have to sacrifice one over the other. Compromise is out of the question with us, and we believe you deserve the top-quality for your investment.

Complementing Art and Collectibles

Your expanding round table is only half the journey of maximizing a room; you’ll need to pair it with surrounding furniture and decor that complement and accentuate your beautiful centerpiece. You can incorporate various elements into your table’s space to enhance its natural beauty and bring the room to life. 

Consider some of the following pieces and how our interior designers integrated them with the expanding round table.

Norman – Quarter Sawn Teak / Angled Bookmatched / Grain Filled High Gloss Finish

Cocoa Bean – Flat Sawn Alder / Custom Pattern / Semi-Gloss Finish with Chip Carved Top

Los Griegos – Barn Wood / Custom Pattern / Satin Finish

Maintenance, Care, and Support

Preserving Beauty and Function

We design our expanding round tables to be resilient against external forces. That said, consider some ways you can further take care of your table to maintain its natural beauty and functionality.

  • Use coasters and placements to avoid rings and stains.
  • Dust and wipe down the surface using a mild vinegar and water solution with a non-abrasive cloth.
  • Avoid long-term exposure to natural sunlight with window blinds and curtains.
  • Avoid close proximity to heating and cooling vents that can dry out wood and loosen mechanisms.
  • Keep room temperature between 60 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit and humidity levels between 45% to 55%.

Professional Services and Assistance

Contact us if your expanding round table has noticeable tarnishing, discoloration, chips or scratches, stubborn stains, or problems with the expanding/collapsing mechanism. Your designer can determine the cause of your table’s problem and aid in bringing your table back to its original state.

Expanding Round Table Operation


Expand your table to accommodate guests in minutes.

Operating the table is a simple process. Since the table top is on a locking carousel, you can open and close the table from one place instead of having to walk around the table. First pull each pie out and unfold each leaf. Then push each leaf into the center and then each pie to lock it all into place. There is a lock underneath to keep the table from spinning.

PRICING


Included in the pricing of every custom Lotus Table:

Wood Selection

We source the highest quality lumber available for each table we build and are meticulous in culling for wood density, moisture content and the specific grain patterns our clients require. Your choice of most American hardwoods are included in the starting price. Exotic woods are up charged at current market price.

Bases

We offer six standard bases. The Ball, Caporaso and Curved Column bases are included in the starting price. The Corbels, Tapered and Barrel base are upgrades. If you have an interest in a different style base or would like to create a truly original custom, we will guide you through the process.

Top Design

Unique top designs and custom inlays are one of our fortes! Each table top design poses different challenges that are priced accordingly. A more simple straight grain table top is included in the starting price.

Our Finish

This is the most important part of the process. We are proud of exceeding expectations by delivering the highest level of color corrected and top coatings available. Physical approval samples are sent for each table and revisions are made until our client is satisfied. A two part custom color toning and/or glaze and a multiple coat flat or satin conversion varnish top coat is included in the starting price. Grain filled high gloss finishes, variable contrasting colors or any finish requirements that exceed time and materials allotted are an up-charge and will add to the production time.

Bench Made

In Our Workshop all of our pieces are hand-made, start to finish, by a single craftsman. We approach each table as a unique piece of art that must be functional and maintain its beauty for years to come. This requires one individual to accept full control and responsibility for the detailed precision and process execution to achieve.

Final Assembly and Inspection

Each piece is inspected, signed and delicately wrapped before it makes its way to your home.

White Glove Delivery

We offer white-glove delivery, assuring you that someone from our family will usher your new work of art all the way to its destination.

Process


SHIPPING & WHITE GLOVE DELIVERY


White Glove Delivery

The preferred method of delivery is to let us bring it to you. A Lotus Table expert will schedule a time to come to your location, deliver and install the table, and teach you how to assemble, operate, and care for your investment/masterpiece/showpiece. Delivery and installation are not included in the price of the Expanding Round Table and only available in the contiguous US.

International Delivery

Expandable Round Tables can be shipped internationally. To ensure that they arrive to you safely, they will need to ship disassembled. We do supply video installation instructions. Although the installation is simple, professional delivery and assembly is recommended.

John Mark McClellan has been delivering and installing Expanding Round Tables and other Western Heritage Furniture for over 20 years.

DEPOSITS & PAYMENTS

There is currently an ever growing waiting list for the Expandable Round Table.

We require a 70% deposit to secure your place in the production line. There will be a 15% progress payment due mid production and the balance will be due upon completion.

We accept Wire Transfer, Check and Credit Cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express) with a 2.8% processing fee.

All transactions are secure, processed and verified by Authorize.net and/or PayPal with the latest 256 bit encryption technology.
