The Mikado started with the legs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDesigned by Alain van Havre, the Mikado is built around a single structural idea — that two sets of solid oak legs, tapered and precisely shaped, can interlock under a rectangular top without a single bolt holding the puzzle together. The result is a base that earns more attention than most dining tables manage with their entire design. Functional. Sculptural. Completely its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eTwo leg types — one tapering from 7.2 to 9cm, one from 7 to 8.8cm — slot together to form a base that distributes load evenly and creates a visual tension that makes the table look like it is always mid-motion. Like the Japanese game it takes its name from, where removing a single element collapses the whole, nothing about the Mikado base is incidental. Rated to 160kg and standing 73cm clear beneath the top, it is as structurally confident as it looks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe tabletop and base are cut from 100% solid oak — \u003cem\u003eQuercus robur\u003c\/em\u003e sourced from Serbia — giving each table a grain pattern that no two pieces share exactly. In the oiled natural oak finish the wood is treated with a PFAS-free hardwax oil that feeds the grain and keeps the surface open and warm to the touch. In the varnished oak black finish a varnish closes the surface and deepens the oak to near-black, changing the character of the table entirely while keeping the same interlocking base structure beneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from solid oak with a hardwax oil finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eThe 203 comfortably seats up to 8 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epeople\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 240cm seats 8-10 people\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eThe 280cm seats 10-12 people\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength Options: 203cm, 240cm, 280cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 110 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 76 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Care for Your Mikado Table\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSolid oak is a natural material — it lives and breathes with your home, so a little care keeps it looking its best for years.
