1. A white dining table as a design feature
In many cultures, white symbolises purity, cleanliness, order and perfection, making it a fitting base for simple, original or more distinctive dining tables such as the semi-circular Artek 95 table. If you prefer a contemporary interior, a white design dining table can become a focal point in the kitchen, dining room or living area. Choose a tone-on-tone look, create contrast or use the table as a deliberate break with the rest of the style. Match your white dining table to the kitchen and dining room, or combine it with furniture and accessories in contrasting styles and colours. A substantial wooden chair adds elegance to a light white table, while chairs in different colours make the table stand out even more. The famous Tulip table by the international company Knoll needs no decoration. Its timeless form is an example of considered furniture design that responds to people's needs.
2. A versatile white table
Wherever you place your white designer table, it should work for its intended purpose. Like other dining tables, a white table can be extendable or height-adjustable. Think about which functions you need before choosing a design kitchen table or dining table for your home. If you often have guests, an extendable white dining table is a practical option. Additional table leaves can provide extra space. Check whether they can be stored inside the table and whether they are included. If the table top can be removed from the base, you can change the base as needed. Chair seat height also affects comfort, and some white tables can be adjusted in height.
3. White dining tables in different sizes
The size of your future table depends on the space available and how many people will sit around it. The functional Kristalia Nori dining table, for example, offers room for family and friends and can be extended from 166 cm to 278 cm with additional table leaves. Think about how many chairs you want to place around your table. This depends on both the table top and the base, which should leave enough legroom. As a general guide, a width of 70 cm per person is recommended for comfortable dining. Round white dining tables may also be available with an additional leaf to extend the surface.
4. Materials: differences between white dining tables
A polypropylene table has a smoother appearance than a white wooden dining table, as it has no visible grain. The young Danish company Muuto offers a slim, distinctive white dining table that works well at home or in the office. Its design reflects the company's philosophy of pared-back simplicity and clean lines. We also offer high-quality white tables in birch, aluminium and plastic. The versatile collection by the Danish company HAY allows for different combinations: a plywood top with a white laminate finish rests on a powder-coated aluminium base, bringing function and aesthetics together. A white dining table can have a natural matt surface or a high-gloss top. The bases also vary, using lacquered aluminium or steel, birch, oak or beech, or glass-fibre-reinforced polypropylene.
5. Shapes and colours: does a white dining table have to be completely white?
A kitchen table can be completely white or have a white top with legs in another colour. The DK10 extendable table in chrome by Andersen Furniture combines a chrome-plated stainless-steel base with a stylish oval top, available in fixed or extendable versions. White dining tables come in a range of shapes, including round, rectangular, square and oval. Designers show their creativity in the bases, from straight or curved legs and crossbars at different heights to a single central pedestal with or without supports. A natural wood base adds interest and contrast to a white dining table, while an all-white design has a more cohesive look.
6. How to care for a white dining table
Clean your white designer dining table according to the manufacturer's instructions. The right care depends on the material of the top. Wipe a high-gloss surface with a lint-free, slightly damp cotton cloth or a chamois leather. Remove grease stains with mild soap or glass cleaner. White dining tables with linoleum, laminate or plastic tops are generally more robust and easier to care for, and can also be cleaned with a damp cloth. Do not use solvent-based cleaners.
7. How much does a white designer table cost?
If you like minimalist interiors, the Magis Table First offers several practical features. The classic dining table measures 140 × 80 cm and has a light, almost floating appearance, while seating up to six people. As a practical basic option, it sits in the lower price range. An outdoor version is also available on request. White dining tables in the mid-range include Kartell's square Four table and Andersen Furniture's striking 160 cm rectangular T1 extendable table. The elegant white designs by Zanotta and Conmoto are priced higher and have distinctive looks and functions. Browse our shop to find a white table to suit your budget.
