    The best paint for a dining table is with a lacquered finish, and a French Polish being the best type of lacquered finish. A French Polish is extremely labor intensive which also makes it the most expensive of finishes. It involves many applications and layers of lacquer - each layer laboriously hand polished to a hard and gorgeous sheen often times resembling a sheet of glass. This thick beautiful lacquer will protect your dining table's paint for many years of regular use. Without this, your table will be more susceptible to scratches, dings and liquid stains from your plates, silverware and glassware.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 20, 2024

Should you only find a name, read about the maker and learn when it produced sets similar to yours to get a rough idea of the age of your set. On 1stDibs, explore a selection of dining room sets.
