Dining Tables Sets

The Flagship Collection

Dining Tables Sets

Coordinated dining suites — table, chairs, buffet, and vitrine — hand-built as one in our Cairo atelier. The room finished, not assembled piece by piece.

Seats 6 to 30 10–14 week build Worldwide shipping

What a complete suite includes

Every piece carved from the same wood batch, finished with the same gilt percentage, and built in the same production run — so the room reads as one composition, not a collection.

The Table

Rectangular, oval, or round. Extending or fixed. 6 to 30 seats.

The Chairs

Two head-of-table armchairs + side chairs. Damask, silk, or leather.

The Buffet

Marble-top sideboard for serving. 2 to 6 doors, drawers above.

The Vitrine

Glass-fronted display for crystal and china. Optional LED lighting.

Louis XVI

Straight fluted legs, laurel medallions, restrained proportion.

Early 1800s

Empire

Sphinx and column legs, sabre supports, heavy gilt-on-mahogany.

Symmetric balance, Greek key motifs, ivory-and-gold palette.

How a suite is built

III

Weeks 7–10

Finish & upholstery

22-karat leaf gilt, patina, marble inlay, fabric stretch.

Weeks 11–14

Crate & ship

Disassembled for transit, insured, signed-for delivery to your home.

A coordinated dining suite is the most considered furniture purchase a household makes — one room, one decision, lived in for decades. Buying piece by piece guarantees mismatch: a table from one workshop, chairs from another, a buffet found later — the wood tones never quite align, the gilt percentages drift, the carving depth tells on you under the light.

We build complete suites in one production run, in one atelier, by the same hands. The same beech, the same walnut, the same Egyptian marble cut from one slab, the same 22-karat leaf gilt applied at the same hour. When the suite arrives, every piece reads as one composition: not assembled, but composed.

Built to outlast generations

The mattress in the bedroom will be replaced six times. The dining suite will not. Solid beech and walnut frames, hand-joined with traditional mortise and tenon, finished with materials that age rather than degrade — these are the structural choices that decide whether your suite becomes a family heirloom or lands in a thrift store in twenty years.

We ship to fifteen countries with full insurance and white-glove placement available in Egypt and the Gulf. For US, UK, and EU deliveries, we coordinate with white-glove logistics partners; you receive a fully assembled, polished suite placed exactly where you want it.

We don't build dining sets. We compose the room where your family will eat for the next forty years.

Frequently asked

Can I order just the table from a suite, or must I buy everything?

You can order any single piece. We recommend the full suite for coordinated finish, but if you want the table now and the buffet later, we keep your suite specifications on file for years — the chairs and buffet you commission in 2028 will match the table you bought in 2026.

How many people do your standard sets seat?

Standard configurations: 6-seat (rectangular 180cm), 8-seat (210cm), 10-seat (260cm), 12-seat (300cm), and grand 16+ (350cm extending). Custom dimensions on request — common requests are 14-seat ovals and 24-seat banquet tables.

What's the actual lead time door-to-door?

Total: 10-14 weeks for the suite to be built + 2-4 weeks for crating and international shipping. Faster turnaround for Egypt-only orders (8-10 weeks total). We send progress photos at frame, finish, and crate stages so you see the work as it happens.

Do you handle export documentation and customs for international buyers?

Yes — we prepare all export paperwork (certificate of origin, commercial invoice, HS codes for furniture, fumigation certificates for wood). For Gulf, US, UK, and EU, we work with established freight partners who clear customs door-to-door. Customer pays import duty per destination.

Can I commission a custom style that's not in your standard four?

Yes. Send reference images (photos of an existing piece you admire, sketches, or interior magazine clippings) and we'll discuss feasibility. Most-requested custom directions: Ottoman/Orientalist revival, Art Nouveau curves, English Regency. Add 2-4 weeks to lead time for custom-style work.

How is a suite this large packaged and shipped?

Disassembled into 8-12 numbered crates: table top + legs separate, each chair in a foam-padded box, buffet and vitrine shipped as multi-piece flat-packs with assembly hardware included. Total weight 200-450kg depending on suite size. Re-assembly takes a skilled carpenter 4-6 hours; we provide a printed and video guide.
