Space saver — With corner supports that maximize user legroom, the Dulwich Extension Table is available in a round or rectangular shape. Both feature a sliding steel mechanism that makes size changes easy, with additional leaves stored below the tabletop.

Since graduating from London’s Kingston Polytechnic in 1979, Matthew Hilton has built a following for his innovative furniture and lighting, with pieces held in the permanent collections of London’s Geffrye and Victoria & Albert Museums, among others. His Dulwich Extension Table (2016) – pronounced “dull-itch,” just like its London neighbor Greenwich – is a masterclass in function and craft. The piece’s slender legs draw outward from the corners, maximizing user legroom, while details like mitered joints and visible through-tenons speak to its artistry. Finished with a solid-wood edge banding for durability, the tabletop has a locking steel mechanism that easily opens to accommodate the table’s additional leaves. The rectangular table is made in Malaysia (walnut) or Lithuania (oak), and the round one in Thailand.

One rectangular table, three sizes.
Simply pull one end of the table and the top smoothly expands, allowing insertion of up to two leaves for three possible table lengths: 62.25″, 80″ and 97.25″.

One round table, two sizes.
Designed for small spaces, the round table extends from 49.25″ to 68.25″ with one leaf.

After guests depart, store the leaves in the felt-lined compartment under the top – a feature that eliminates the “find the leaf” drama before gatherings.

A design is the concept of or proposal for an object, process, or system. The word design refers to something that is or has been intentionally created by a thinking agent, and is sometimes used to refer to the inherent nature of something – its design. The verb to design expresses the process of developing a design. In some cases, the direct construction of an object without an explicit prior plan may also be considered to be a design (such as in arts and crafts). A design is expected to have a purpose within a certain context, usually having to satisfy certain goals and constraints and to take into account aesthetic, functional, economic, environmental, or socio-political considerations. Traditional examples of designs include architectural and engineering drawings, circuit diagrams, sewing patterns, and less tangible artefacts such as business process models.

Dulwich (; DUL-itch) is an area in south London, England. The settlement is mostly in the London Borough of Southwark, with parts in the London Borough of Lambeth, and consists of Dulwich Village, East Dulwich, West Dulwich, and the Southwark half of Herne Hill (which is often referred to as the North Dulwich triangle). Dulwich lies in a valley between the neighbouring districts of Camberwell (to the north), Crystal Palace, Denmark Hill, Forest Hill, Peckham, Sydenham Hill, and Tulse Hill.

For the last four centuries Dulwich has been centred on the College of God's Gift, also known as the "Old College", which owned most of the land in the area today known as the Dulwich Estate. The College, founded with educational and charitable aims, established three large private schools in the 19th century (Dulwich College, Alleyn's School and James Allen's Girls' School). In recent decades four large state secondary schools have opened in the area (The Charter School East Dulwich, The Charter School North Dulwich, Kingsdale Foundation School and Harris Boys' Academy East Dulwich).

Dulwich formed part of the ancient parish of Camberwell in Surrey, which became the Metropolitan Borough of Camberwell within the County of London in 1889; in 1965, the borough was abolished and the area became part of the newly created London Borough of Southwark.

    Elegant, well designed and well made. Using for everyday use. Perfect for a smaller space but with room to expand. Great purchase.

    I’d echo what others have written here. The table looks beautiful and the extension feature is great. However after just a few days there are already some scratches showing on the table top, and all we’ve done is eat a few meals on plates so far. Will see how it holds up over time but it does appear to be quite sensitive to daily use.

    The Dulwich is a very elegant table and the walnut is a beautiful, deeper shade than most other walnut pieces at DWR. The extension mechanism is very slick and the table stores the two extension leaves inside, which makes expanding and contracting the table very convenient.

    We use the table in our dining room and as some have pointed out, the table seems somewhat prone to dings and scratches if one isn’t careful. Out of all our DWR pieces, this is definitely our favorite so far.

    Bought this table with the walnut finish and still enjoy looking at the natural patterned top. It is a real wood laminate-that is only way to keep it solidly straight and true. I have not had any scratching or denting with my experience. Excellent table and a great price. Can go modern or eclectic. Would buy again.

    I bought my table as a floor sample and was fine with the two scratches it had. But I’ve had it for six months now and I’ve added quite a few more. I dropped a butter knife once and it left a very deep vent. I love the look and functionality of the table but I agree with the other review that is easily prone to scratching.
