Wish List: Eight fab finds for your interiors 

Neptune's Moreton is a farmhouse kitchen table made from top to toe in oak. And like all the best farmhouse tables, it combines practicality (roomy drawers at either end for all the essentials) with a sense of heritage (the tactile oak, the leg detail, the tongue-and-groove-style top). 

Delicious dining

Check out this practical, pretty dining table, it's Neptune's Moreton farmhouse kitchen table. 

Ticking lots of boxes this one - it's oak, with roomy drawers for all the bits, and we love that leg detail. 

It's €2,480, see Neptune.com for Irish stockists.
