Harvest Dining Room Table Details
Genuine Solid Hardwood: Our harvest dining room tables are created from solid hardwood. We use only genuine hardwoods -- there is no pine, plywood filler, pressed wood, "select hardwoods" or veneers used in our harvest tables.
Tabletops: Our harvest dining room tables are created standard from 1.5" thick hardwood, but we can also increase the thickness of this tabletop. See below under 'Other Table Options' for more details.
Table Undercarriage: Our harvest tables are created to be very strong and solid, and are designed to support a heavy tabletop. The legs and supports are created entirely from solid hardwood.
Traditional Craftsmanship: Harmony Cedar harvest tables are individually handcrafted by Amish craftsmen with decades of experience. Creating a beautiful, durable tabletop requires this level of expertise.
Hickory Characteristics
Hickory is a very hard, dense wood with dark and light patches intermixed. Its fine grain and unique, varigated coloration ranges from medium blonde to brown. The color variation in hickory is substantial. Hickory will take on amber tones over time. This color change is moderate. Its species name is Carya Ovata. Its Janka rating (hardness and resistance to scrapes, gouges and cuts) is 1820, making it the strongest commonly available hardwood.
Choosing an Hickory Finish
We offer a variety of stains and finishes for our Hickory Tables. Please click here for details on the available hickory finish options.
If you're unsure about the finish for your table, we encourage you to order wood samples. Color accuracy on our website cannot be assured due to a number of variables including lighting, the camera used, and the settings on your computer monitor.
Our 100% Quality Guarantee
Each dining room table is created by hand by Amish master craftsmen and is carefully inspected individually prior to shipping to assure its quality.
To assure this quality, we offer a full money back guarantee and a full one year warranty against defects on our dining room tables.

Shipping and Packaging
Our harvest dining room tables take 4-6 weeks to create, and 1-3 weeks for delivery.
9 times out of 10, our dining tables are completed and delivered within this timeframe. However, true craftsmanship cannot be rushed -- sometimes a piece just takes a bit longer. Please let us know if there is an important holiday or event we should be aware of when you place your order, and we will do our best to get it there on time.
We ship all of our dining tables via 'inside the home delivery and setup'. Your new table will be created to your specifications by a master craftsman, then delivered and set-up inside your dining room by professional furniture movers.
We also offer Curbside Delivery (you take the packaged table off of the back of the truck and unload it yourself), and Curbside Delivery with liftgate (same as the previous, except that the table is lowered to the ground for you). These are more affordable options, but they are also more complicated and difficult. We recommend this as an option for some of our smaller tables, but do not recommend this option for any table larger than around 60" in length. Our tables are very large and very heavy.

We recommend that you contact us to discuss your table before placing an order.
Tabletop Thickness
Our tabletops are created from 1.5" thick solid hardwood as our standard, but we can also create thicker tabletops. Changing the tabletop thickness affects the price of the table, table leaves and shipping costs.
1.25" thick tabletop: 0.75" or 1" wood is commonly used on tabletops. A tabletop created from 1.25" hardwood is quite a solid piece of furniture.
1.5" thick tabletop: 1.5" hardwood is thicker than the wood used for most tabletops, and it is quite solid. This is the standard for our harvest dining room tables.
1.75" thick and 2" thick tabletop: A harvest dining room table created from 1.75" or 2" thick hardwood is very solid, very substantial and very heavy.
Measured Thickness of a Completed Tabletop: Please note that in the woodworking process, some of this thickness is sanded and planed away in order to create a flat tabletop surface. This varies depending on the individual piece of wood, but is generally around .125" to .25". This difference between the starting material and the finished product is a consequence of working with natural products, as each piece of wood is unique. This variation in planing and sanding depth will be present on any handmade table.
Table Sizes and Leaves
We offer several standard harvest table sizes, but we can create a table to nearly any size or dimension. The table sizes listed here are not exhaustive.
Our harvest dining room tables can all house a number of leaves, expanding the size of the tabletop when friends or family arrive.
Harvest tables ordered without leaves have four legs (for tables 80" or shorter) or six legs (for tables 81" or longer).
Four-legged harvest tables ordered with leaves have a fifth leg in the center of the table to support the tabletop when leaves are added.
Each family is unique, and table leaves reflect that difference. 12" leaves are the most common size, and have the advantage of being easier to store and carry around. But 18" leaves make seating your extended friends and family a bit easier, as most chairs are also 18" wide. Each 18" leaf allows two more people to sit at the dining table.
We strongly recommend ordering any necessary leaves along with your table -- leaves ordered at a later date may not match the wood grain, or fit inside the table properly.
Please see our Guide to Dining Room Tables for more details on table leaves and leaf storage.
