What makes a farmhouse dining table?
The origins of the farmhouse table can be traced back to rural homes, where practicality and durability were a key priority. These gorgeous wooden tables served as the setting for just about everything in the home, from daily chores to family meals. No matter what the farmhouse dining table faced that day, they were built to withstand it for many years to come. Today, that same sense of functionality and simplicity remains at the heart of the farmhouse table and the country homes that they're a part of. With their sturdy build and inviting presence, a farmhouse kitchen table is perfect for gathering loved ones and creating memories.
