The Lark base is made of a luxury composite form that is cast from a hand-carved sculpture by Susan Hable. The Lark series is unique in that it is made in 3 predetermined sizes with a set number of pedestals for each top size. Lark Ivory is the standard finish as shown. The Lark Base can accept paint finishes as well as finishes approved for "luxury composite" substrates. The top and base are part of the Personal Preference Dining Table program which allows you to select from a variety of tops and bases to create a custom table for your home.
