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 Oak Slab Furniture
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Yes, oak furniture can indeed be refinished. First, clean the oak, then sand down the existing finish with coarse sandpaper, then apply a coat of sealant. Finish your DIY project by staining or painting the wood. You can also save the hassle by shopping a collection of oak furniture from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 30, 2024
    Many people feel that oak furniture is worth it. In addition to having an attractive appearance due to its regular grain pattern and natural color, oak is a dense hardwood that holds up well to the effects of use. It is also somewhat water-resistant, making it less likely to warp, especially when sealed. Keep in mind that other factors affect furniture quality beyond its wood type. Comparing construction techniques, joinery, hardware types and other characteristics can help you select furniture that suits your needs, appeals to your sense of style and fits your budget. Shop a large collection of oak furniture and other wood furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Tiger oak furniture refers to tables, case goods, seating and other furnishings produced out of a specific type of wood called tiger oak. It is conventional oak wood that undergoes quarter sawing to create a striped grain pattern. Find a variety of tiger oak furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024
    Yes, oak furniture can be of good quality. As a dense, strong hardwood, oak can make for sturdy furniture that is capable of standing the test of time. However, the methods used to craft furniture and the strength of the hardware and adhesives that go into it also impacts the overall quality. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of oak furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 12, 2024
    Yes, oak wood is good for furniture. Due to its density, oak furniture is sturdy and can stand the test of time. The wood is also fairly resistant to rot, mold and mildew, especially when given a protective finish. As a result, it can even be used to make outdoor furniture. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of wood furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024
    To tell if furniture is made of oak, look closely at the grain. Oak wood has a regular grain pattern with few knots. As a result, it often looks like it has thin lines drawn on it. If an oak piece is unfinished and shows its natural color, you can expect it to be a light to medium color that is brown or yellowish in hue, depending on the oak species. You can find many detailed images of natural oak wood on trusted online resources. Examining photographs can help you become familiar with what oak's grain and color look like so that you can make a more confident identification. Researching the furniture maker and learning about what woods its craftspeople typically worked with may also be helpful. For example, Stickley and Bernhardt are both well-known for producing oak pieces. Shop a wide variety of oak furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 14, 2024
    Yes, you can paint solid oak furniture. However, if a piece already has a finish on it, you may need to strip the paint using a chemical stripper or hand tools and apply a primer before painting. Because the stripping process can result in damage when performed improperly, you may wish to have a professional paint your furniture for you. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of solid oak furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Tiger oak furniture dates back to the 19th century, so it may be hard to pinpoint the exact age. The best way to date tiger oak furniture is to work with an appraiser. You’ll find expertly vetted tiger oak furniture and other wood furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
    Quarter sawn oak furniture is furniture made of wood cut so that angular growth rings intersect the face of the board at a 60 to 90 degree angle. Quarter sawn oak furniture was a hallmark of the 20th century Arts & Crafts style. Shop elegant and traditionally beautiful quarter sawn oak furniture 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024
    Many colors go with oak furniture. To bring out the warmth of the material, pair it with reds, oranges, yellows or earthy greens. Cooler blues and purples can make an appealing contrast with oak, while neutrals like white and gray combined with oak furnishings are popular for minimalist interiors. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of oak furniture.
