SHOP ROUND & OVAL DINING TABLES

A round dining table changes the way people sit together. There's no head of the table and no one stuck at the far end, so everyone can see and talk to each other. Round tables also take up less floor space than a rectangle that seats the same number of people. That's why they suit apartments, open-plan kitchens and smaller dining nooks so well.

This range covers true round tables for 4 to 6 people and longer oval dining tables for 6 to 8. Tops come in sintered stone, ceramic and timber veneer.

Why Choose a Round Dining Table?

  • Easier conversation: everyone sits the same distance from the centre
  • Saves space: no corners, so the table fits tighter rooms and walkways
  • Pedestal bases: no legs at the corners, so chairs tuck in and knees don't bump
  • Softer edges: no sharp corners, which helps in busy family homes

Round Dining Tables for 4 to 6

For a small dining area, a table between 130 and 135cm comfortably seats four. The Kimber has a 130cm white ceramic top on a gold criss-cross base. The Roma is 135cm in walnut-coloured ash veneer with a reeded pedestal.

If you regularly have six at the table, go up to 150cm. The Mont Blanc has a Pandora Brown sintered stone top on a layered elm veneer base. You can see more stone tops in our sintered stone dining tables range.

Oval Dining Tables for Larger Spaces

An oval table seats as many people as a rectangle but keeps the soft, rounded look. It also feels lighter in an open-plan room. The Venus is a 200cm walnut veneer oval on twin pedestals. For eight people, the Palazzo stretches to 240cm with a sculptural walnut base.

Finding the Right Size

  • 130–135cm round: seats 4
  • 150cm round: seats 6
  • 200cm oval: seats 6
  • 220–240cm oval: seats 6 to 8

Leave about 90cm between the edge of the table and the nearest wall or cabinet, so chairs can slide out and people can still walk behind them.

Stone or Timber?

Sintered stone and ceramic tops handle heat, spills and scratches well, so they're a good fit for families who eat at the table every day. Walnut and ash veneer tops are warmer and softer, and they suit timber floors and natural interiors. If timber is your preference, browse our wooden dining tables.

Complete Your Dining Room

Round tables look best with chairs that don't have wide arms, so more of them fit around the table. Browse our dining chairs to find a matching set.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many people can sit at a round dining table?

It depends on the size. A 130–135cm round table seats four comfortably, and a 150cm table seats six. For eight people, an oval table around 220–240cm long is a better choice.

Is a round dining table good for a small space?

Yes. A round table has no corners, so it takes up less floor space and is easier to walk around. A pedestal base also lets chairs tuck in fully when they're not in use.

What size round dining table seats 6?

Look for a table around 150cm in diameter. Our Mont Blanc round dining table is 150cm and is designed as a 6-seater.

What is the difference between a round and an oval dining table?

A round table is the same width all the way around and suits square rooms and smaller spaces. An oval table is longer, so it seats more people and suits rectangular dining rooms, while still keeping soft, rounded edges.

How much space do I need around a round dining table?

Allow about 90cm between the table edge and any wall or furniture. That gives enough room to pull chairs out and walk behind seated guests.

Are pedestal dining tables stable?

Yes. A well-made pedestal base is weighted and wide at the bottom to keep the table steady. Our stone-top tables use solid, heavy bases to support the weight of the top.
