Bontempi's wider collection of fixed dining tables gives us plenty of scope to work with different room sizes, shapes and finishes. The tables shown online are a selected part of that collection; having worked with Bontempi for around 12 years, we can help you explore the wider range when the right answer is not immediately visible on our website.
Start with the space the table needs to occupy and how many people you want to seat comfortably. Overall length and width matter, but so does the room left around the table for chairs to pull out and for people to move past them. A table that technically fits the measurements can still feel too large once it is surrounded by chairs.
Shape can change how the room works too. Rectangular, round and other table shapes use space differently, so think about the room itself, where people naturally walk and how you want everyone to sit around the table rather than choosing on appearance alone.
The position and design of the base or legs can make a real difference to everyday use. A striking base may be an important part of the table's appearance, but it also needs to leave people somewhere comfortable to put their legs and allow the number of chairs you intend to use to sit naturally around it.
If you already own the dining chairs, bring their measurements with you. If you are choosing the whole dining setting together, we can work through the table and seating as one decision rather than discovering afterwards that two individually suitable products do not work particularly well together.
Once the size, shape and seating arrangement are right, Bontempi's choice of materials and finishes gives us considerable flexibility. If you have a particular colour to coordinate with, a preferred top material or a specific dimension to work within, we can use our knowledge of the wider collection to narrow down the appropriate options.
And if Bontempi does not provide the best answer for the room, we can compare it with dining tables from other manufacturers rather than forcing the decision into one brand. You can explore our wider range of fixed dining tables online, or visit our Ash Vale showroom and talk us through the space you are working with.
