The red of the tabletop gives this dining table made of formica and light wood a crisp look, ideal for a contemporary dining room. Sourced second-hand, this model charms with the combination of a red formica top and light-stained wooden legs, creating a simple and easy-to-match ensemble. Its height under the tabletop allows comfortable space for chairs, while its size accommodates 4 to 6 guests without crowding the room. The formica provides a smooth surface, suitable for everyday meals as well as more convivial moments. In an open kitchen, it hosts a large carafe, stoneware plates, and a bouquet of country flowers as a centerpiece. Length: 120 cm Depth: 75 cm Height: 77 cm Clearance under the tabletop: 64 cm A brief history of the dining table For a long time absent from interiors, the dining table only appears as a fixed piece of furniture in the 18th century with the emergence of the dedicated dining room. Previously, people would "set the table" on simple trestles that were stored away after the meal to free up space. Whether round, oval, or rectangular, it is defined by its generous top supported by a central base or four corners. Also called a "dining table" or "reception table," it is the beating heart of the home, designed to anchor shared moments with durability and style.
