A dining table is the heart of a home, where meals turn into memories, and where your space says who you’ve become.
The Lani Dines honors that role. A modern trestle design with architectural presence, it’s crafted from premium hardwoods to last for generations. Choose solid American white oak for crisp permanence, or solid black walnut for depth and drama, each enriched with subtle brass detailing that catches light like a line of gold. Offered in 8-foot and 10-foot formats, the table is as versatile as it is enduring.
Decide how the brass and hardwood converse:
Finish options include a straight edge for crisp simplicity, or a deep chamfer that softens the form with shadow and light.
The Lani Dines is not just a table, it’s the centerpiece of a home that reflects permanence, taste, and presence.
Every Lani Dines is built from solid hardwood. By nature, no two tables are alike — grain patterns shift from subtle to dramatic, carrying the character of each tree. The table you receive won’t match the photos exactly; it will be even more uniquely yours.
This design is not mass-produced. Only 500 Lani Dines tables will ever be made. Once this run is complete, the design will be retired forever.
While the Lani Dines is offered in spectacular stock forms at eight and ten feet, some visions call for more.
For those who wish to go beyond, we offer bespoke variations. Dimensions may be refined, proportions reimagined, and materials elevated, from rare hardwoods to bold, one-of-a-kind interpretations. Each commission becomes a statement piece tailored to its home.

The airflow design, the build quality, the way the walnut and oak complement each other, everything about my Lani Lobes screams precision. Erik’s decade of experience shows. San Francisco has a lot of makers, but Needham Woodworks is in a league of its own.
Warning: Lani Lobes may cause jealousy. Every friend who sees mine immediately wants one. Solid walnut, curves like sculpture, built to last. This is San Francisco custom furniture that actually feels alive.
My Lani Lobes cabinet feels like it was made just for me. Erik listened to every detail from finish to inlays, and delivered something that feels like an heirloom. It’s rare to find custom furniture makers in San Francisco with this level of care.
I’ve had my Lani Lobes cabinet for months now and I still get goosebumps walking into the studio. The craftsmanship is unreal walnut that glows joints tighter than my band’s rhythm section. This is custom furniture made in San Francisco at its finest.
As someone obsessed with clean lines I was blown away by the Lani Lobes The curves are elegan the proportions feel balanced and the woodwork is museum-level It’s not just gear storage it’s a statement piece of custom furniture. San Francisco is lucky to have Needham Woodworks.
