Runde Esstische

Choose dining chairs that suit the scale of your round dining table, ensuring they fit comfortably around the circumference. A small round dining table typically seats four chairs, while a large round dining table accommodates six to eight. For tighter spaces, consider armless or narrow designs, and opt for chairs with rounded or curved backs to echo the table's shape.

Both wooden and upholstered chairs work well – match wood tones to your round oak dining table, or add upholstered seats for comfort. Ensure chair heights align with your table.

Round dining tables encourage conversation by eliminating a head of the table, creating a more sociable dining experience. They work particularly well in smaller rooms or kitchens, as a small round dining table fits compact spaces efficiently. Circular dining tables have no sharp corners, making them safer for families with young children and allowing easier movement around the room.

A round kitchen table suits open-plan layouts beautifully, offering seating flexibility that accommodates extra guests more seamlessly than fixed rectangular designs.

The size of the round dining table you need depends on your room dimensions and how many people you seat regularly. A 100-120cm diameter circle dining table suits four people comfortably, while a 130-150cm diameter table can accommodate six. For larger gatherings, a 150-180cm diameter round dining room table seats eight to ten.

Measure your space to ensure at least 90cm clearance around the table for movement. When choosing a round dining table and chairs, consider the table diameter alongside the chair width to avoid overcrowding. A round dining table set should feel proportionate to your room without overwhelming the space.

Style a round dining table with a circular centrepiece that suits the table's proportions, keeping it low enough for conversation. A round table works beautifully with a single statement piece in the centre, such as a vase paired with low flowers, or grouped pillar candles, rather than items in a line.

Place settings should be evenly spaced around the circumference for balance. For a circular dining table, avoid table runners as they disrupt symmetry; instead, use round placemats or a circular tablecloth. Keep styling simple to honour the table's shape and maintain its sociable, inclusive feel.
