Previously, one 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 at four corners. Also known as a "dining table" or "reception table," it is the beating heart of the home, designed to anchor moments of sharing with durability and style.
