// Tables we make
The kinds of tables Houston customers come up for
Every live edge table starts as a single slab — no glued boards, no veneers, no faux edges. From there, the difference between a dining table and a coffee table is mostly slab thickness, length, and base. Here are the table styles we build most often, with finished examples in our gallery.
- 01
Live Edge Dining Tables
The main reason most Houston customers make the drive. Built from a single slab, sized to seat anywhere from 4 to 12+ depending on the piece. Most dining tables we build land in the 84″–108″ range — large enough to anchor the room, sized to fit through standard doorways.
- 02
Live Edge Conference & Executive Tables
For home offices, boardrooms, and law-office buildouts. We can finish slabs up to 120″+ and integrate power and data grommets if your setup needs them. We typically pair these with a heavier double-Y or X base for stability under regular meeting use.
- 03
Live Edge Coffee Tables
Smaller pieces — usually 48″–72″ — built to be the centerpiece of a living room rather than a side surface. Coffee table slabs read differently than dining slabs because you’re looking down at them, so the grain pattern carries the piece more than the silhouette does.
- 04
Live Edge Console & Entry Tables
Long, narrow slabs for entry halls and behind sofas. Common sizes run 60″–84″ long and 14″–18″ deep. These often work as the first thing guests see when they walk into a Houston home with a formal entry.
- 05
Live Edge Desks
A growing category. Same single-slab construction as our dining tables, sized down to a working depth (typically 30″–34″). Customers in older homes often use these in studies that already have built-in shelving — the live edge softens the formality of paneled libraries.
// Sizing guide
Sizing your live edge dining table for a Houston home
Houston dining rooms span newer construction and older homes alike, so table sizing matters. The wrong dimensions can crowd a room with built-ins or leave a wide-open space feeling under-furnished.
Quick reference for live edge dining tables:
- Seats 4–6 60″–72″ length
- Seats 6–8 84″–96″ length
- Seats 8–10 96″–108″ length
- Seats 10–12+ 108″–120″+ length
Live edge slabs are typically 38″–48″ wide depending on the piece, which is wider than most rectangular dining tables. That width is part of what makes them feel like a centerpiece — but it also means you need 36″–42″ of clearance around the table for chairs and walking room.
If you can bring room dimensions or a rough floor plan to your visit, we’ll help you spec the right slab on the spot.
// Pairing
How we pair slabs with bases for tables
Every MORUXO table is two decisions: the slab on top, and the base underneath. The slab carries the personality. The base controls how the piece sits in the room.
-
Most popular for dining
Double-Y base
Strong, balanced, and the legs sit far enough inboard that two chairs fit on each end. Our most-recommended option for slabs over 84″.
-
Clean visual line
Modern X base
Works well in transitional or contemporary rooms where you want the slab to do the talking and the base to disappear under it.
-
Round + oval slabs
Tripod base
Best for round or oval slabs and smaller dining tables. Three points of contact give a sculptural footprint without crowding.
-
Formal dining rooms
Traditional legs
Paired with thicker slabs in formal dining rooms where detailed millwork calls for a base with real visual weight.
For conference and executive pieces we use heavier bases with added cross-bracing. For coffee tables, lower-profile metal bases or hairpin-style legs work well. Every base style is in stock at our Austin location, so you can mock up the pairing in person before committing.

// Why our tables
What makes a MORUXO live edge table different
Four things that show up in every table we ship — written briefly so the table itself can do the talking.
- 01
Single-slab construction
No glued boards, no veneer, no faux live edges. Each table is one continuous piece of wood — the way live edge is supposed to be done.
- 02
Hand-finished in Austin
Our team levels, sands, and seals every slab in our shop. You see the actual table — not a sample, not a photo, not a render.
- 03
No production wait
The table you pick is finished and ready. Take it home the same day or schedule delivery within the week.
- 04
Designed to last
Properly cared for, a single-slab live edge table will outlast the house it sits in. Most of our customers expect to pass theirs to their kids.
// FAQ
Common questions about live edge tables
Different from the parent city page — these answer the questions that come up about the tables themselves: care, capacity, sizing, and what to expect from the wood.
Properly maintained, indefinitely. The single-slab construction has no joints, glues, or veneers that can fail with age. Most of our customers expect their tables to outlast them and pass to their kids.
Yes — and they often anchor formal rooms better than traditional rectangular pieces. The natural edge and unique grain make the table itself the centerpiece, which works especially well in older homes where detailed architecture calls for one bold focal point rather than competing decorative elements.
Wipe with a damp cloth for daily cleaning. Use coasters under sweating glasses. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight to keep the finish even. Re-oil once a year if you want to maintain a hand-rubbed finish — most customers find this isn’t necessary.
We work from finished slabs in stock, so the dimensions you see are the dimensions available. With 55+ slabs on the floor at any time, most customers find a piece in their target size range. If you have a specific footprint in mind, tell us before your visit and we’ll have likely candidates pulled.
They’re features, not flaws. Natural cracks (called “checks”) are stabilized with epoxy fills during finishing, which both reinforces the wood and creates the dramatic dark veining many customers come for. Knots are similarly part of the character — every slab has its own story written into the grain.
Yes. Most of our dining table customers add a matching live edge bench for one or both sides of the table. It’s an easy way to seat more people without crowding the room with chairs, and the matching grain ties the setup together.
A typical 96″ dining slab weighs 200–350 lbs depending on thickness. We help load every piece, and our delivery team handles in-home placement for any customer who’d rather not transport themselves.
