Your dining furniture is an integral part of your home. It’s more than just a table and chairs – it’s where loved ones catch up over dinner each evening; it’s important for entertaining and special occasions too. Once you have selected the shape and size of the table you want for your dining room, the next step is the choice of material for the top. Whatever you use your dining table for – be it family dinners, grand feasts, homework, craft or regular entertaining – a good table should be adaptable, robust and fit your needs.
WOOD
Wood is a living material. This makes it the perfect choice for those who love natural materials. It is sensitive to light and it gets to its final shade over time. In terms of maintenance wood needs some attention as it fears moisture and absorbs oily and greasy substances. It is however very versatile material, adapts well to classic and contemporary environments.
GLASS
It is surely one of the most used materials in many furniture as well as dining tables. It is fragile by its nature but it acquires resistance when subjected to certain treatments such as tempering. Transparent glass is perfect to lighten a room or to highlight a table base.
CERAMIC
Ceramic is not very demanding for maintenance and very resistant to stains, high temperatures, humidity and scratches; hygienic and easy to clean. Moreover it is suitable for different treatments and its finishes can simulate the aesthetics of natural stones.

The surface can be worked in many different ways achieving glossy or smooth finish. It is very durable material even if due to its porosity it can absorb liquids, therefore it requires a little attention in daily use. Its precious appearance makes it perfect for luxury dining room. Bring everyone together at meal times with a table that fits your needs and living space.
