Tables in the classic country house style

An example: a dining table for 6 people (2 places on the long sides, and one place on the front side) results in an optimal table size of160 × 90 cm. For the arrangement of the places with 3 people each on the long sides, there is an optimal table size of 180 × 90 (80) cm.

If all 12 people are supposed to sit opposite your dining table, there is a total measure of360 cm length and 80 cm width. If the end faces of your dining table (12 people) are also used as a seat for one person, there is a table measure of 300 x 80 cm.

If you choose table legs that are supposed to serve as a support, the ideal height is87 cm. In addition, you can opt for adjustable models between 70 and 110 cm.

As a rule, to determine the seat height: first measure the table and chair height and then compile the size of the people who often use this seating.Depending on whether they have grown rather large or a little smaller, the table should be approx. 27 cm to 32 cm higher than the chair.
