Tables and chairs take on greater importance in our lives when we eat, drink and even work on them. It is a thing of beauty in our home.

Material used in tables and chairs.

These can be made of various materials depending on our taste and budget.

Wood: The most common material used in the manufacture of furniture is wood. Wood tables with glass tops are the most popular variety of dining room tables. Instead of plain wood, the legs and sides are carved to make the furniture look grand. The curved legs of the table also look good and give the table a sturdy appearance. The height and shape of the chairs can be made unique to individual specifications. Chairs with a large back look large but then for such chairs you need to have a larger space. The seat of the chair can be simple, whether you are using it for the kitchen table or for the children’s table. But for the dining table, the chairs can be arranged in various types of fabric, such as velvet or satin, to make it look exquisite.

wrought iron: The wrought iron table set can be particularly useful in the backyard. These look better and are stronger than the aluminum ones. You can even place a glass top on a wrought iron base and serve as a dining table.

Aluminum: Tables made of these are mostly kept in the garden or backyard as they are resistant to both heat and cold.

Glass: Thick and strong fiberglass is used to make the table. The density of the glass is kept thick to make it strong. Improves the appearance of the room as light is better reflected with glass. Another advantage of using glass is that it can match any type of decor you may have around the house. Also, glass is easy to clean compared to any other piece of furniture.

Points to consider before buying tables and chairs:

• The shape of the garden table can be square or round. But it is better to have a rectangular dining table as it seats more people.
• The chairs should match the decoration of the rest of the furniture in the house. Change the upholstery every two years. You can even make washable chair covers.
• The kitchen table should be small and made of wood.
• The children’s table should be made of durable material. Metal should be avoided as much as possible.
• Keep a sturdy centerpiece or chandelier on the dining room table. You can even keep a hanging lamp for a dramatic effect.
