What is a kitchen table?

A kitchen table is a table used for serving and eating food. Like dining tables, they usually accommodate a number of people and stand on tall legs. The main difference between the two types of furniture is that the dining table is historically more formal. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of antique and vintage kitchen tables.

How can you tell if a kitchen table is antique?

To tell if a kitchen table is antique, look under the table and on the legs for a maker's mark. It may be carved, branded or stamped onto the surface or appear on a paper or metal label. Using the marking, you can consult trusted online resources to learn about the maker and view catalogues of their pieces, searching for tables similar to yours. If your kitchen table was produced at least 100 years ago, it is an antique. Keep in mind that not all antique furnishings have maker's markings. In the event that you're unable to locate a mark, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can evaluate your piece for you. On 1stDibs, explore a diverse assortment of tables.

What is a good color to paint a kitchen table?

A good color to paint on the kitchen table is a matter of personal choice. Most of the preferred colors are brown, black, green, white, or blue. These hues give a calm shade to the kitchen and can coordinate well with the flooring and style of decor in the kitchen. Shop a range of antique and vintage kitchen tables on 1stDibs.
