Laya Round Carved Mango Wood Table – Small

The simplicity and classic style of the 4-seater Laya table make it an effortless addition to a dining room or kitchen space. A beautifully hand-carved piece, the elegant base has a distinctive silhouette that is in harmonious balance with the generous proportions of the tabletop. The grain of the wood and naturally-occurring knots are highlighted in all their beauty with a raw finish that allows the subtle variations in tone, and the tactility of the wood to shine through. We find a circular table feels beautifully informal and creates easy, intimate gatherings.

This is a hand-carved piece, with the table top made from complementary mango wood boards – each piece is carefully chosen for its harmonious natural tones. The base has been slowly hand-turned to create its distinctive form. Mango wood has a light natural tone with natural variation within the grain. We love working with this material which is a by-product of the mango-growing industry in India and repurposing it to give it a new lease of life. Once the trees are no longer fruitful, they are taken down and we use them to create many of our stylish, eclectic and sustainable furnishings for use throughout the home. We support artisanal ways of working with wood, celebrating and keeping age-old skills alive.

To care for your mango wood wash in warm soapy water, rinse and dry immediately. Because it is a tropical plant, mango wood is best suited to humid environments; with daily use in a home with central heating, it can be at risk of drying out if not cared for, which may cause cracking or warping. To take the best care of your mango wood, you can treat it with natural oils that you have on hand at home such as Olive Oil or Walnut Oil, using a soft cloth for application. These oils will nourish, but not permanently soak into the wood, so if you wash them off you must reapply them. Please note adding oil may darken the tone of the wood. We recommend using coasters for drinks, the finish may mark when put in contact with hot drinks or liquid. Blot any spillage immediately with a dry cloth, do not use chemical cleaners.
