At 35.8" L and 29.1" W, the Balena is one of the largest and most complex single-piece metal table bases we build. And with strong capacity, marble slabs, thick hardwood, live-edge pieces, and stone tops all sit firmly on the whale's back. Every ridge, every curve is shaped from heavy steel and 100% welded by hand. Then finished in matte black to let the form do all the talking.

Shown here with our epoxy wood top, but works just as naturally under natural wood, butcher block, or any surface you bring to it, in rectangle, square, or beyond.

FEATURES

CHOOSE YOUR TABLETOP

The Balena metal dining table base suits a range of tabletop materials and styles. Each option brings its own character, from the organic warmth of natural wood to the striking depth of epoxy finishes. Available top options for this set include:

  • Epoxy Wood Top
  • Natural Wood Top
  • Butcher Block Top

KEY FEATURES

  • Sweeping C-Curve: The entire metal table base follows a single, flowing arc that rises from the floor and curls forward to meet your tabletop. The motion feels frozen mid-breach, like the animal just surfaced and the steel caught it in time.
  • Shaped Entirely by Hand: The Balena is one of the most demanding pieces our craftsmen build. Every curve, every ridge is formed individually over hours of careful metalwork. 20 years+ of experience go into each base.
  • Pre-Drilled Mounting Plate: Wide plate with pre-drilled holes for secure, centered attachment. Works with wood, marble, glass, stone, and concrete surfaces.
  • Adjustable Levelers: With this built-in feature, you can simply twist by hand until the table sits perfectly flat on tile, hardwood, concrete, or any surface.
  • Durable Powder-Coating Finish: The sleek black surface acts as a shield against moisture, scratches, and everyday wear, keeping the metal dining base of the table looking sharp over time.
  • Quick Setup: Hardware and instructions are all in the box. Most people have it mounted and ready in under 20 minutes.
  • Heavy-Duty Load Capacity: Constructed from solid powder-coated steel, built to support serious dining use.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which base size works with my table top?

As a general rule, your table base or legs should sit well within the footprint of your table top, leaving enough overhang on all sides for visual balance and stability. 

Each of our product listings includes the mounting plate dimensions so you can check compatibility before purchasing. If you're working with a custom slab or an unusual shape, reach out, and we'll help you match the right base.

Do the table tops shown in the photos match exactly what I'll receive?

No, and that's actually a good thing. Every epoxy table top we make is handcrafted from natural materials, so wood grain, epoxy flow, and coloring will vary from piece to piece. That means each piece comes out with its own character, which is what makes it unique and worth having.

What is the stone fill included with some tabletop options?

Some of our tabletop options come with an internal stone fill added to the base of the top. This adds grounded weight to the setup, giving the table base extra stability on smooth or polished floors. The stone fill weight is listed alongside each table top option.

Can I use my own tabletop with these bases?

Yes. All our table legs and bases come with mounting plates and hardware so you can attach your own slab, butcher block, or custom top. Just check the mounting plate dimensions listed in each product and make sure your top is thick enough to accommodate the screws included.

How long does it take to receive my table?

Most orders arrive within 2 to 7 business days, depending on your location and what you're ordering. Tabletops, full table sets, and bases each ship on slightly different timelines. For a full breakdown by location and order type, please check our shipping information page.
