    Yes, a round dining table is practical. Typically, shapes of dining tables that don't have corners save the most space.

Round dining room tables, particularly those that originated in the Art Deco period, still endure as a popular contemporary substitute for traditional rectangular dining tables. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of dining tables from some of the world's top sellers.
