white willow pedestal table diam 80 cm

The 80 cm diameter white willow pedestal table

The pedestal table is at the height of a terrace table, i.e. 70 cm, a height that still allows you to sit and eat, although it is 5 cm lower than a real dining table, but it will make an excellent pedestal table for breakfast, tea or coffee. The top of the table is woven from willow on a particle board which ensures stability and rigidity of the surface, and can be fitted with an optional glass top.

Willow, rattan, what's the difference?

Rattan is a tropical plant (85% comes from Indonesia) related to the palm family which produces a "cane" that is easy to bend (with steam). Rattan allows for tighter curves and finer weaves than willow, but being less rigid, it requires a heavier frame.

Willow grows easily throughout Europe. It does not require any plant protection products or fertilisers. The harvest is completely regenerated each year, so it is a very easily renewable resource. Peeled hot ("buff" willow with natural copper tones) or cold ("white" willow), it is most often presented untreated, the willow fibre leaving its smooth and satiny surface to appear "au naturel".

Characteristics and options

Overall dimensions: height 70 x diameter 80 cm, diameter of the tray only 60 cm. Weight 8 kg (without glass top). Structure: natural "white" (beige-coloured) willow. Top: particle board covered with willow weave. Made in Europe.

A wicker table or pedestal table can be used in a veranda, in a winter garden, or outside in good weather and occasionally, but cannot be considered as garden furniture. They are not made to withstand the elements, humidity, frost, or too long exposure to the sun. The pedestal table is also hand woven. Dimensional differences of 1 to 2 cm may occur, no two are exactly alike.

Maintenance: dust with a damp cloth, do not use commercial cleaning products. In case of heavy soiling, clean with a sponge and soap.
