The heart of any home, the dining space must be capable of delivering both intimacy and
entertainment. Our collection of dining furnishings is, therefore, dynamic and works as well
in integrated spaces as in dedicated dining rooms. Choose from our Artisan Collection,
which has been exclusively styled to deliver an African twist to a contemporary concept;
or from our globally sourced range.

Not only do we offer our own, locally made collection of pure linen napery
(table cloths, runners and napkins), but our constantly changing repertoire of exclusively

NEED TO KNOW DINING TABLES

To allow enough room for a person to comfortably rise and push their chair back from the
table, you will need a minimum of 36 inches between the table edge and the wall
(or buffet, etc.), but more (42-48 inches) is better.

Allow each guest a minimum of 24 inches of table surface. Even better, allow up to 30
inches for extra elbow- room. For rectangular tables, be sure to add an extra 12 inches at
each end for those seated at the head and food of the table.

Tables with pedestal bases allow for more room because table legs won't get in the way of chairs. Most dining tables average 36 inches wide and vary from 30 inches to 48 inches.

• A 72 inch long rectangular table will comfortably seat six.

• A 96 inch long rectangular table will comfortably seat eight.

• A 120 inch long rectangular table will comfortably seat ten.

• A 36-48 inch round (diameter) table will comfortably seat four.

• A 60 inch round (diameter) table will comfortably seat six

• A 72 inch round (diameter) table will comfortably seat eight.

Most dining tables are about 30 inches high. Chair height is generally 18 inches (from the floor to the seat). This allows for comfortable lap and leg-room. A general rule of thumb is to allow 12 inches between the seat of your chair and your tabletop.

Rectangular guidelines generally work for oval tables, as well.

Round guidelines can be used for square tables.
