Personally I would go with the shorter height so it appears to be a table and not a second island. Also, seating is more comfortable at table hight. When i sit at my island, my feet dangle. The height would not determine the length. I have seen very long tables at table height.

Thanks Jhmarie -- I have a pic of the possible design but the final look depends on the tree. - I presume.
I suggested the longer length for the standard 30" so it doesn't look too awkward in the wide space

Maybe?....

Good luck! That's a great table, and I think it will turn out nice! :)

Those are beautiful inspirations azz! Beach house II is a go.

What dimensions for table ht would you suggest to seat 4-6

Hi, yeah....I guess I have kinda been an "azz". lol :) J/K I'm glad you found some inspiration from the pictures. :) I'm not quite understanding your question...... what I can say is, I find a length of 72" very comfortable seating six.....but that would probably be a bit much to seat just four. I think going with a standard height will let it stand apart from the island and draw even more attention to a beautiful piece. :) If I can help at all....just give a shout, I'll be around. :) Good luck! :)

We custom make slab tables and have a fun and professional process which includes 3d images so you can see how the table will look before we start. Happy to discuss 512.363.5093

Sample photo of 3d - thanks!

Oh crap!! Zaz, I'm so so sorry--- spell check did it and I didn't check before I hit submit.... Embarrassed to no return

@Pansy Cra, no problem at all. It's fine...it gave me a laugh. Thanks! Please don't apologize. Really. :) I cannot wait to see your table. How long before we get a peek at it?

The above was quite humorous:)

Thanks for the sense of humor!! ;)) I'm crossing my fingers for a completion and in place by mid February. Will definitely upload pictures!! Thanks again!

Will definitely be checking back. I bookmarked your post.... so I don't lose ya! See you in February. Can't wait. ;)

I finally got the finished product of the live edge dining table... After 2 months delay, near lawsuit, and oh never-mind. Wasn't really feeling the "lack" of live edge but just said oh well I've waited long enough.
So I'm letting the table grow on me.

I paired it with the teal linen chairs and got stuck on the selection of 2 captain chairs, in terms of style, color, etc.
Can anyone suggest some finishing touches to my kitchen.

1. I'm working on backsplash selection too as I have the granite selection.
2. I want to change the light fixture (very granny-like)
3. Drapes (if that's not over kill)
4. Kitchen wall color
4a. Option so far: revere pewter by Benjamin Moore
4b. The kitchen open to the family room which will probably have revere pewter walls

Any thoughts to pull this lil concoction together.
