In most Lucknow homes the dining table is where the family meets every day and where guests gather on festivals. Here is how to pick one that fits both.
4, 6 or 8 seater?
- 4 seater (about 90 × 120 cm): couples and small flats.
- 6 seater (about 90 × 180 cm): the most popular size for families. See the Valencia 6-seater.
- 8 seater (about 100 × 220 cm or more): joint families and homes that host often, like the Castello solid teak 8-seater.
Leave enough room around the table
Allow about 90 cm between the table edge and the wall or other furniture so chairs can pull out and people can walk behind them. So a 6-seater table that is 90 × 180 cm needs a space of roughly 270 × 360 cm.
Round, oval or rectangular?
Round and oval tables make conversation easy and soften a square room; the Aragon oval marble table is a good example. Rectangular tables seat more people along a long room.
Solid wood or marble top?
- Solid teak or sheesham is warm, durable and can be re-polished after years of use.
- Marble looks elegant and stays cool, but needs coasters for acidic foods like lemon and pickle, which can mark it.
Chairs
Cushioned chairs are comfortable for long family meals; cane or open-back chairs look lighter in a smaller room. Make sure there is about 30 cm between the seat and the table top.
