15 Statement Dining Tables For Your Kitchen Accent Piece
Your dining table is where you often gather with family and friends, so choosing the right one is of the utmost importance. Ultimately, how you plan to use a kitchen dining table coupled with the size of the room will be the biggest influential factors regarding which one you choose. But beyond the perfect dining table size and shape, you can look for a furniture piece with unique details that will have all eyes drawn to it.
For smaller spaces, round tables are the ideal option. The circular shape allows anyone to slide around to the other side of the table, and they often come in elegant statement-worthy materials like marble and glass. And because they're generally smaller than rectangular tables, they easily fit into eating nooks and tight spaces. Of course, if your kitchen flows into a dedicated dining room, you'll be able to fit a much larger table. In these cases, a long, rectangular table is a great option, and something you can find in all sorts of colors and patterns with uniquely shaped frames.
1. A little pop of color
Most dining tables are neutral in their color schemes, but for those who want something a little more eye-catching and colorful, the Parsons dining table may be what you're looking for. The entire table surface features a nature motif with flowers, greenery, butterflies, bees, and dragonflies. A patterned dining table is unexpected, so this is the ideal piece of furniture for anyone looking to make a statement in their home, especially one with maximalist, botanical, or cottagecore décor themes.
2. Modern metallic and glass
For those who prefer the sleek look in their dining space, the Meme pedestal dining table combines metal and glass to perfection. The metallic table legs add an artistic and sculptural aspect, which will make it feel as if you're dining atop modern art. Meanwhile, the glass adds an airy, window-like element to the space; because it won't visually take up room, the glass top works for small spaces by giving the appearance of a more open flow.
3. Rustic farmhouse table
The farmhouse aesthetic is charming and comfortable. Meant to be a gathering place, a traditional farmhouse table is large and sturdy, making it the perfect piece of furniture for family dinners and for those who enjoy entertaining. The Banks extending dining table perfectly captures the coziness and rustic charm of traditional farmhouse décor. Made from poplar, this table will add the texture and comforting colors of nature to your space. It's 6 feet long with two removable leaves, making this table ideal for larger eat-in kitchens where lots of people gather.
4. Statement legs

Transitional design seamlessly blends together contradicting elements. It offers all the comforts of traditional homes with some more contemporary trends and colors mixed in.

Minimalistic without becoming austere, this is the ideal table to bridge the gap between the two design styles. This table is round and 4 feet across, so it will fit in a nook or smaller kitchen with ease.

It's a perfect choice for a kitchen dining nook.
8. Concrete dining table
Concrete is not a common material for interior furniture, which makes it the perfect material for anyone who prefers to display a bit of uniqueness in their home. The Sonny round dining table is made from fiber-reinforced concrete with a distressed finish. It'll fit well with industrial and modern interiors, yet the neutral coloring allows it to blend well with a variety of color schemes and styles. It's sure to be a furniture piece that will garner plenty of comments and admiration.
9. Intimate rustic table

It'll create an intimate dining experience for morning breakfasts and romantic dinners alike.

A little boho chic and a little modern, the Villa & House Alma Center dining table is a stylish option for someone looking to increase the texture in their space. Made with a bleached oak finish, the wood graining already adds a natural texture, but the tabletop steals the show with woven cane encased in glass. Caning has been on-trend in recent years for a variety of furniture pieces for the bohemian-inspired texture it adds to a space.
