Coastal Dining by the Sea - from Tide to Table

A 60" dining table with pencil pole rattan hand-wrapped over a metal frame in a coil weave design, with Agate Top from Our Boat House.

There's something deeply inviting about a dining room that evokes the calm rhythm of the tide, the warmth of sun-warmed wood, and the gentle ease of salty air wafting in from the shoreline. With pieces from Our Boat House’s Dining Room Collection, you can bring that relaxed, refined coastal vibe into your home. Below we’ll explore how to choose your dining table, chairs, sideboards, and even one-of-a-kind handcrafted driftwood tables that truly make your space unique.

Natural Driftwood

Custom Designed & Hand Crafted

Crafted from real, authentic driftwood, cleaned, shaped and finished - these pieces are meant to be paired with a glass top, and beautiful chairs. All the perfect components to capturing a rustic shoreline aesthetic.

Why Driftwood Bases:

  • Authentic & Real Wood - Each piece starts with handpicked driftwood, chosen for its natural form.
  • Hand Crafting - Artisans then refine it in coastal studios, crafting it to perfection
  • Tailored to Glass Size - Each Base is listed to match with a glass top to compliment your style and space
  • Unique & One-of-a-Kind - No two are alike.
