Round Dining Tables

The round dining table symbolizes communal dining and environmental consciousness. Perfect for cozy family dinners and lively gatherings, these tables are designed to make every meal special.

Benefits of round dining tables:

  • Communal Dining Redefined: The shape enhances the communal feel, making meals more inclusive and interactive.
  • Space-Saving Elegance: Ideal for smaller spaces without compromising on style, yet versatile enough for open-concept layouts.
  • Commitment to the Planet: Made with sustainably sourced materials, each table contributes to a healthier environment.

Marble Round Dining Tables

Marble stands out for its inherent beauty and longevity, making it a preferred choice for those looking to add a touch of luxury to their dining spaces. At World Interiors, we pair the natural elegance of marble with our sustainable practices, crafting marble dining tables that are both exquisite and environmentally friendly. This commitment ensures that our customers enjoy the luxury of marble without compromising their ecological values.

Rustic Dining Tables

Rustic dining tables embody comfort and natural beauty, making them a beloved choice for those looking to infuse their dining spaces with warmth and character. With their robust construction and emphasis on natural wood textures, these tables bring an element of the outdoors into your home, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere.

World Interiors specializes in rustic dining tables that are not just furniture pieces but stories of sustainability and craftsmanship. Each table is crafted from solid woods like reclaimed teak, acacia and mango and showcases its materials' unique grain and texture. It offers a distinct and earthy appeal that becomes the focal point of any dining room.

Farmhouse Style Tables

The farmhouse dining table is a classic embodiment of rustic elegance. Its simple, sturdy design and natural wood finish offer a sense of warmth and hospitality that harkens back to simpler times. World Interiors' farmhouse tables are designed to be the heart of the home, where family and friends can gather in comfort and style.

Unique Live-Edge Tables

Live-edge tables celebrate the natural beauty of wood in its most unadulterated form. By preserving the original lines of the tree trunk, each live-edge table from World Interiors is a unique piece of art, bringing an organic and dynamic edge to your dining space.

Trestle Tables

Trestle tables are a testament to the enduring appeal of architectural design in furniture. Originating from the Middle Ages, these tables were prized for their strength (and ease of assembly), features that are still celebrated in modern designs. At World Interiors, we honor the rich history of the trestle table while infusing it with contemporary sensibilities and our unwavering commitment to sustainability.

Our collection of trestle dining table styles showcases the perfect balance between traditional craftsmanship and modern design ethos. They are focal points of beauty and functionality, embodying the principles of sustainable luxury and handcrafted quality that World Interiors stands for.

Choosing the Right Wood Type for Your Dining Table

Wood's natural versatility means it can adapt to various design preferences, from rustic to contemporary. Its ability to be shaped, stained or painted ensures a wooden dining table matches any décor style. For its longevity and beauty, wood remains a top choice for dining table styles in any era. Explore the options below. 

Oak

Known for its strength and durability, it is a classic choice that complements traditional and modern designs. Its pronounced grain pattern adds character and warmth to any dining area. The Alpine 85” Modern Dining Table is a perfect example of this traditional style.

Teak

The material of your dining table should reflect and complement your home's design theme. Solid wood or reclaimed wood tables anchor a space with warmth and rustic charm. Consider how the texture, color, and finish of the material can enhance your room’s design.

Birch

Versatile and easily incorporated into various design schemes, offering a lighter color palette. It's durable and more affordable, making it an excellent choice for those looking for quality on a budget. The Charles Mid-Century Extension Dining Table provides a sophisticated look in any modern or traditional-style home. Its earthy tones complement your design scheme.

Sustainable Materials for Stunning Dining Tables

At World Interiors, we utilize sustainably sourced wood to craft eco-friendly dining tables that elevate your home.

Types of Dining Room Tables

Reclaimed Wood

One of our primary materials, reclaimed wood, not only brings a piece of history into your home but also reduces the demand for new lumber. Each dining table crafted from reclaimed wood is unique, featuring textures and patinas that tell a story. The Cordoba Vintage Reclaimed Dining Table provides a casual charm to any dining space. The weathered look provides a versatile look suitable for a kitchen table.

Mango Wood

Another of our favorite materials. As a fast-growing, sustainable wood, mango is another favorite of ours. Once the trees no longer produce fruit, they are repurposed into stunning furniture, giving new life to what otherwise would be waste. Browse our Bondi 80” Dining Table and add a vintage touch to any style home.

Acacia Wood

Known for its durability and striking patterns, acacia is a sustainable choice due to its rapid growth rate. Using acacia wood for our dining tables allows us to offer hardwearing and beautiful pieces without depleting slower-growing resources. Add a Belfrie 72” Acacia Wood Dining Table that complements any décor style and accents your dining space with a modern touch.

FAQs About the Types of Dining Room Tables

Whether you're furnishing a new home or updating your current space, it's common to have questions about choosing the perfect dining table style that meets both your aesthetic preferences and practical needs. To help simplify your decision-making process, we've compiled a list of frequently asked questions.

How Do I Choose the Right Style of Dining Table for My Room?

Choosing the right style involves considering the overall aesthetic of your dining room and how you intend to use the table. Select a table that complements your room's décor for a cohesive look. Consider round dining tables for more intimate spaces or to create a cozy atmosphere. Rustic dining tables add warmth and character, perfect for a more casual, welcoming setting. If your home features a modern or contemporary design, trestle tables or options that mimic mid-century modern style can offer functionality and style.

What Are the Most Durable Materials for a Dining Table?

The durability of a dining table often depends on the material. Hardwoods such as oak, teak and acacia are renowned for their longevity and resistance to wear, making them excellent choices for dining tables. These materials ensure durability and bring natural beauty and warmth to your dining area.

How Can I Tell if a Table is the Right size for My Space?

To determine the right size, measure your dining area and ensure enough space around the table for chairs and movement (typically, 3 feet of clearance on all sides). Consider the number of people you plan to seat regularly and choose a table size that accommodates your needs without overcrowding.

Can I Mix and Match Dining Tables and Chairs?

Absolutely! Mixing and matching dining tables and chairs can add a dynamic and personalized touch to your dining space. When pairing different styles, consider the color scheme or material type to maintain a cohesive look. Explore our dining chairs collection to find chairs that complement your table and enhance your room's overall aesthetic.

The Timeless Influence of Mid-Century Modern on Dining Tables

The mid-century modern design movement has left an indelible mark on the world of furniture, with its emphasis on clean lines, organic shapes and functional beauty. This iconic style flourished from the mid-1940s to the late 1960s and continues to influence contemporary furniture design, including dining tables.

At World Interiors, we celebrate the enduring appeal of mid-century modern design by incorporating its aesthetic principles into our dining tables while embedding modern innovations and a commitment to sustainability.

One of the hallmarks of mid-century modern furniture design is the creative use of legs. Tapered, splayed or pedestal legs provide a distinct aesthetic characteristic of the era and enhance the sense of space and openness in dining areas. One of the accomplishments of the mid-century modern style is that it highlights past style features in a unique light, showcasing the furniture in a whole new light.

Pedestal tables are so versatile they can appear in a classic Victorian-style home or a more modern-style Cape Cod. Plus, you can blend unique materials, such as wood and cast iron, giving a table a whole new texture, which is just one of the many benefits of choosing mid-century modern furniture.
