castors
(With a whole plethora of options available in terms of antique dining

of reasons, not least the fantastical overall quality and excellent choice of
timber selected. It also retains a good colour and patina. The extending

1970s Post Modern Black and Chrome Dining Set with Daystrom Scoop Chairs
Located in Chattanooga, TN
Exuding bold elegance and unapologetic mid-century charm, this four-piece dining ensemble encapsulates 1970s modernist glamour. A quartet of sculptural Daystrom “scoop” chairs—sinuously molded and deeply tufted—embraces the body while radiating visual sophistication. The chrome frames, sleek and polished, arrest the light like metallic sculptures set into motion. Upholstered in a deep black tone that flirts with velvet’s lushness and vinyl’s sheen, the chairs merge comfort with refined edge.
Nestled atop tapered tubular legs, the seating invites extended evenings of conversation or repose. The generous waist of the scoop offers a gentle cradle—accentuated by tuft details that lend rhythm and tactility. These chairs are as much about presence as purpose: they beckon touch and draw admiration with their architectural silhouette.
Balanced against them is a companion dining table exuding a strong modernist pedigree. A sleek smoked-glass hexagonal top rests atop a refined pedestal base, with curved chromed steel branches that bloom outward in sculptural finesse. The glass’s smoky surface softens the brightness of polished metal, creating an interplay of shadow and reflection that shifts with each angle.
Together, the set unfolds like a scene in motion—the chairs poised as silhouettes around an arresting glass bloom—inviting you to inhabit them, to dine, to linger in their embrace.
Daystrom, established in the mid-20th century, earned acclaim for stylish, well-crafted furniture that transformed chrome and glass into enduring design statements. The tactile grace of these chairs reflects that legacy; they are comfortable, sculptural, and thoroughly resilient.
This set is not mere furniture—it is a bridge between 1970s postmodern allure and timeless design integrity. Ideal for collectors and stylists alike, it promises to elevate any space with its kinetic presence, formal ingenuity, and emotive charm.
We are pleased to present this swanky dining set. This combo is everything we love about the 1970s aesthetic in one package! The chairs are by Daystrom and the table by Bassett Mirror Company.. Both companies have brought us some fabulous designs in the mid-mod period, and this marriage falls right in line with that legacy. 70's glam meets futuristic modern in this four seat dinette set. The table base is crafted curved tubular chromed steel in a unique and captivating flowering lotus pedestal style. The smoked glass hexagon top is dripping with swag on top of the hand-polished chrome glimmer. This gently used table still has its original hang tag and bumpers for the glass.
The deep tufted scoop chairs...

Shop Antique, New and Vintage Dining Tables on 1stDibs
No matter your furniture style of choice, a shared meal is one of life’s true rewards. Why not treat your family and friends to a luxurious dining experience? Browse our top picks to find the perfect antique, new or vintage dining room table for this important occasion.
Modern furniture design borrows significantly from the trends of yore, and this is especially apparent in dining tables. Ancient Egyptians made practical use of the earliest four-legged tables of wood and rock — their models bear striking similarity to the dining tables of today — while common large medieval dining room tables in England were made of oak or elm. Romans and Greeks, renowned for big banquets that involved entertainment as well as good food, used early dining room tables made of marble or wood and metals such as bronze for meals.
On 1stDibs, find a range of dining room tables that offers no shortage of options to accommodate modest interiors, midsize family homes and even lavish banquets (entertainment not included).
Beginning in the mid-19th century, more American homes featured dining rooms, where families could gather specifically for a meal together. In the States, upper-class families were the first to enjoy dining room tables, which were the centerpiece of the dining room.
Dining room tables of the Victorian era were created in a range of revivalist styles inspired by neoclassical, Renaissance, Gothic and other traditions. Furnishings of the period were made of various woods, including oak, rosewood and mahogany, and referenced a variety of decorative arts and architectural motifs. Some dining room tables finished in the Rococo style feature gorgeous inlaid marble tabletops or other ornamental flourishes handcrafted by Parisian furniture makers of the 18th century.
In many modern spaces, there often isn’t a dining room separate from the kitchen — instead, they frequently share real estate in a single area. Mid-century modern dining room tables, specifically those created by designers such as Osvaldo Borsani, Edward Wormley and Alvar Aalto, are typically clean and uncomplicated designs for a dining area that’s adjacent to where the cooking is done. Furniture of this era hasn’t lost its allure for those who opt for a casual and contemporary aesthetic.
If you’re of the modern mindset that making and sharing meals should be one in the same — and perhaps large antique dining tables don’t mesh well with your style — consider a popular alternative. Working with a tighter space may mean that a round or oval dining room table, a design that references the festive meals of the medieval era, may be a better fit. 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. Giovanni Offredi’s Paracarro table for Saporiti Italia is a striking round table option that showcases the magnificent Italian industrial design of the 1970s.
