How much table is enough?

8/8/2016

0 Comments

 
This large Walnut Dining table is 52" wide by 103" long. It seats eight comfortably as you can see (count the chairs). The top shape was generated by the owners right before we started on what was to be a standard Boat top shape. They wanted something which fit the sense of the house they had just completed. The top is 1-1/4" thick, a standard 1" top appears skimpy on a table this size.
Note the Fleur arms which allow the arm chairs to be pushed in farther than our standard arms.

How much room is needed per person?
24" of width is best. A place setting is 20" wide, but the person needs more room than that. Typically chairs are 18-21" wide, but the person needs more than that. 
​From the front edge of the chair allow at least 14" for legs and knees when a person is sitting at the table.
So three on a side is 24" times 3 which equals 72", plus 14" on each end for a total of 100"!
