Dining Tables: Vintage, Antique and Solid Wood
The Dining table is the piece of furniture where life happens. At Hauptstadt Möblerei, you will find a changing selection of solid wood dining tables: the extendable teak dining table from the 1960s, the Gründerzeit dining table made of oak with turned legs, the Biedermeier table made of cherry wood, the English dining table made of mahogany, and farmhouse tables made of softwood. Matching dining chairs from the same period are also available. Everything is restored in our Berlin workshop.
Dining Tables by Type
- Extendable dining table: With leaves or a butterfly extension. Mid-century teak tables in particular can be expanded from four to eight seats.
- Round dining table: Space-saving and sociable. Antique round tables often have a central pedestal, and many can be extended into an oval.
- Antique dining table: Gründerzeit and Art Nouveau tables made of oak or walnut, solid and heavy, built to last for generations.
- English dining table: Mahogany, often with a double pedestal and extendable, matching Chippendalechairs.
- Farmhouse table and country-style table: Softwood or oak, simple and sturdy, also suitable as a worktable.
What size do you need?
Allow around 60 cm of table width per person, with a little more at the ends. An extendable table solves the problem of everyday use and entertaining. The exact dimensions, including when extended, are listed for every piece.
Used dining tables, restored
For old tables, we check stability, joints, and extension mechanisms, and refinish the tabletop: oiled, waxed, or varnished, depending on the wood and period. Photos from all sides, dimensions, and a condition description are provided for every piece.

Frequently asked questions about dining tables
Can an antique dining table withstand everyday life with children?
Solid wood can. Scratches can be sanded down and oiled again, which is not possible with veneer from a furniture store.
Do modern chairs go with an old table?
Very well. A Gründerzeit table with cantilever chairs or a teak table with shell chairs are classic combinations. See Modern dining chairs.
How do I care for an oiled solid wood tabletop?
Wipe with a damp cloth, apply a thin new coat of oil once or twice a year, and do not place hot pots on it without a trivet.
Which sideboard goes with the dining table?
The most harmonious choice is from the same period and made of similar wood. Deliberate contrasts work just as well.
