Vintage dining table

Vintage furniture is making a comeback. Timeless in its aesthetic, it allows you to create personalised and original décor in your living spaces. A true return to the roots, these pieces are often crafted from wood or metal. Beyond their durability and longevity, what we love most about vintage décor is the emotion it evokes. Dining tables, sideboards, and chest of drawers are key pieces in any home, and opting for vintage is an excellent way to create a unique atmosphere. However, the choice of furniture is just one aspect; lighting, wall colours, and small decorative elements also play a vital role in achieving a harmonious look and an authentic retro feel.

How to choose a vintage dining table?

The dining table, the central piece of family or friends gatherings, is the main feature of the dining room and the piece you must get right. Opting for a vintage-style table can be a great way to bring charm and character into your space, but you need to know how to choose it. With its authentic character and the emotion tied to old pieces, the vintage choice is increasingly embraced in homes. And for good reason, vintage tables are mainly made of solid wood and/or metal, offering simple and minimalist shapes. Scandinavian-style dining tables are the most renowned, minimalist and functional, easily adapting to any interior. The country and industrial styles, on the other hand, offer thick, robust tops with a more defined character. Today, you can find retro style in every design imaginable, the key is to choose the style that best suits your interior, depending on your existing décor. You can opt for a product made from recycled wood with a weathered finish, or second-hand items from the previous century.

What chairs do you pair with a vintage table?

Now, the choice of chairs. With a vintage table, retro chairs are a must. Velvet seats, caned backs, wooden armchairs—choose chairs in the same tone as the top or the legs of your table. Matching colours or materials is an important element that will help your set be harmonious. sweeek offers complete sets including both tables and chairs to make your life easier.

How to care for a vintage dining table?

To take care of your table, opt for soft cloths and fabrics to avoid stripping or scratching the surface. The secret to not damaging it, is regular cleaning to avoid dirt build-up. Don’t forget to test the cleaning product on a small area of your table before applying it to the entire surface—damaging the top would be a shame. Also, know that touch-up crayons or waxes for wooden materials are available to repair scratches and other marks.

What decoration do you pair with a vintage dining table?

For decoration, opt for pastel tones and unique collector’s items. Don’t hesitate to explore flea markets and second-hand sites to uncover one-of-a-kind pieces that add personality to your space. In the dining room, additional vintage furniture like a sideboard can make a big impact. Whether it’s choosing retro-inspired wall paint or wallpaper, or placing a rug beneath the table, there are plenty of ways to complement your vintage dining table with thoughtfully chosen décor.
