Finding the Right Tables for You
The right vintage, new or antique tables can help make any space in your home stand out.
Over the years, the variety of tables available to us, as well as our specific needs for said tables, has broadened. Today, with all manner of these must-have furnishings differing in shape, material and style, any dining room table can shine just as brightly as the guests who gather around it.
Remember, when shopping for a dining table, it must fit your dining area, and you need to account for space around the table too — think outside the box, as an oval dining table may work for tighter spaces. Alternatively, if you’ve got the room, a Regency-style dining table can elevate any formal occasion at mealtime.
Innovative furniture makers and designers have also redefined what a table can be. Whether it’s an unconventional Ping-Pong table, a brass side table to display your treasured collectibles or a Louis Vuitton steamer trunk to add an air of nostalgia to your loft, your table can say a lot about you.
The visionary work of French designer Xavier Lavergne, for example, includes tables that draw on the forms of celestial bodies as often as they do aquatic creatures or fossils. Elsewhere, Italian architect Gae Aulenti, who looked to Roman architecture in crafting her stately Jumbo coffee table, created clever glass-topped mobile coffee tables that move on bicycle tires or sculpted wood wheels for Fontana Arte.
Coffee and cocktail tables can serve as a room’s centerpiece with attention-grabbing details and colors. Glass varieties will keep your hardwood flooring and dazzling area rugs on display, while a marble or stone coffee table in a modern interior can showcase your prized art books and decorative objects. A unique vintage desk or writing table can bring sophistication and even a bit of spice to your work life.
No matter your desired form or function, a quality table for your living space is a sound investment. On 1stDibs, browse a collection of vintage, new and antique bedside tables, mid-century end tables and more .
Questions About Gilded Dining Tables

- Is a dining table necessary?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024No, a dining table isn't always necessary. People who eat only a few meals at home may not need a dining table, and some people prefer to eat at kitchen counters using counter-height stools. Or, they may choose to sit on the floor in front of a coffee table or to take their meals at a desk or on a TV tray or end table. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of dining tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 25, 2024How wide a dining table should be largely depends on its shape. Most rectangular and oval dining tables are 36 to 40 inches wide.

Generally, a round table 36 to 44 inches in width is ideal for up to four people, while ones that are 44 to 54 inches in diameter can accommodate four to six. Tables between 54 and 59 inches in width are suitable for six to eight people. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of dining tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To protect your maple dining table, use placemats or a tablecloth to reduce the risk of scratches.

- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023There isn’t a single most durable material for a dining table. Solid hardwood and stainless steel can hold up to wear and tear, but the quality of the craftsmanship also impacts durability. Find a variety of dining tables on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Large dining tables are usually called banquet tables due to their ability to seat a crowd. Normally, banquet tables measure over 10 feet in length.

- Is onyx good for a dining table?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 7, 2024Yes, onyx can be a good material for a dining table. The mineral is strong, but it is relatively lightweight, making tables easy to move throughout a room as needed. Many people find the color and luster of onyx tabletops to be visually appealing. Since the material can become scratched or damaged by heat, it is important to take steps to protect an onyx dining table by using felt-backed trivets or heat-resistant fabric mats beneath hot dishes. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of onyx dining tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023Whether mahogany is good for a dining table is largely a matter of personal preference.

Mahogany also features a striking natural grain that renders it ideal for use in that part of your home, specifically as dinner guests will be able to experience it! Shop a range of mahogany dining tables on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 30, 2024Some furniture lovers and interior designers believe ceramic dining tables are worth it. Ceramic tabletops introduce a new texture to dining rooms, enhancing the overall visual appeal. They are also resistant to staining and the effects of heat, characteristics that many other materials used to produce tabletops can lack. However, there are some downsides to ceramic tabletops. For one thing, a large table topped with ceramic may be very heavy and difficult to move. The tabletop can also crack or chip if you drop something heavy on it. To determine whether a ceramic table is ideal for you, weigh the pros and cons of owning one carefully. Shop an assortment of ceramic dining tables and other dining tables on 1stDibs.
- Are ceramic dining tables good?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021Yes, ceramic dining tables are really good as they are very strong and durable. Made from sturdy materials, ceramic dining tables are resistant to spills, cuts, scratches and extreme heat. You can select from varying styles of ceramic dining tables, including Antique, Vintage, 21st Century, Mid Century on 1st Dibs.
