Description
The Seconique Santos Butterfly Dining Set is a space-saving table-and-chair set for smaller kitchens and dining rooms. The grey-slate frame is paired with distressed waxed-pine surfaces, and the four folding chairs can be stored within the table body when not in use.
38.5 cm wide when folded
With the leaves folded down, the table is approximately 38.5 cm wide and 92 cm deep. Fully extended it measures around 115 × 92 × 75.5 cm, so it can move from a narrow storage footprint to a four-place dining surface.
Four chairs store inside
The set includes four folding chairs, each approximately 39.5 cm wide, 49 cm deep and 73 cm high. The seat height is around 44 cm. Check both the stored and in-use footprints because the chairs still need clearance when people are seated.
Pine tops with an MDF frame
Seconique specifies pine tops, a painted MDF frame, metal hinges and a metal support bar. This is therefore a mixed-material dining set rather than an all-solid-pine table.
Assembly and folding mechanism
Self-assembly is required. Make sure the leaves and folding chairs are properly opened and stable before use, and follow the manufacturer’s assembly instructions.

Plan three positions, not just the folded size
- Stored: mark the approximately 38.5 × 92 cm folded outline and check access to the stored chairs.
- Opened: mark the approximately 115 × 92 cm tabletop footprint, leaving room to operate the leaves and their supports as instructed.
- In use: position all four chairs where people will sit, pull them out and test the walking route. The tabletop outline is not the whole dining footprint.
A wall, radiator or doorway can prevent one leaf or a stored chair from being used even when the closed table fits. Check the exact manufacturer instructions, floor level and stability before using the folding mechanisms.
