Dining Tables

When Zoom calls melt into dinner parties, we’ve crafted tables that roll with it all. Whether you’re squeezing in remote work, board games, spilled pasta sauce, or spreadsheets, each table is built for real‑life rhythm. From compact two‑seat round dining tables to six‑seat centrepieces, our designs celebrate lived‑in rooms, not showrooms.

Dining table materials that take it all

Your dinner table doesn’t just serve meals — it endures everything from hot plates to homework meltdowns. That’s why material matters. Here’s how to choose one that matches your life.

• Wood: Wooden dining tables like oak, walnut, or rubberwood bring warmth, grain variation, and a patina that tells your story over time. If you want a table that wears in, wood is your ally. Just expect a little upkeep: wipe spills fast, and maybe give it a coaster every now and then.
• Marble: Marble dining tables are the statement-maker. Cool to the touch, veined to perfection, and always visually rich. But beauty comes with boundaries. Marble is porous, so sealing and gentler use are key to keeping it in check. It’s not afraid of dinner parties — just maybe skip the spaghetti stains.
• Glass: Glass dining tables have a certain weightlessness. They bounce light around, make small spaces feel bigger, and handle mess like a pro. The only trade-off? Fingerprints. If you’ve got kids (or snacks on the hour), just keep a cloth nearby.

Finding *the* table: Style, size, and staying power

It’s not just about how it looks (though, yes, that matters). The right dining table needs to work hard — morning coffee station, weekend homework desk, birthday cake holder. Here’s how to pick one that fits your space and your life:

• Material that matches your rhythm: Are you the 'no-coasters-needed' type or the careful coaster-layer? Wood dining tables feel warm and lived-in but ask for a little care. Marble turns heads, but doesn’t love red wine drama. Pick a material that fits your pace, not just your Pinterest board.
• Shape and scale: Tape the floor. Walk around it. Imagine chairs pulled out and guests doing that awkward scoot. A round table keeps things intimate and compact. A rectangular one stretches out for bigger meals or bigger families. Just don’t forget space to breathe (and move).
• Style that feels like you: Whether you're after sculptural modern lines or something softer and rustic, your table sets the tone. Let it work with your lighting, your art, and the everyday mess of life. Good design doesn’t just look good — it lives well.

Round and oval tables work beautifully in smaller rooms. They save on space, allow easier flow around the table, and create a cosy, social atmosphere — ideal for compact UK homes.
