As the centrepiece and most-used piece of furniture in any dining area, choosing a table can be an extensive box-ticking exercise. Among the many decisions you’ll need to take – size, material, colour and extending capabilities – is one that concerns its shape.
Here at Design Dispatch, we’ve hand-picked six round dining tables available at local retailers that might help sway your decision.
Madrid by BoConcept
In a fine example of Danish minimalism, the Madrid table designed by Morten Georgsen for BoConcept displays clean lines and a neutral aesthetic that can evolve with a space. It has a hand-casted concrete base and a choice of table top colours, and is also available as a coffee table. Available at BoConcept.
Barlet by Dutchbone
Plinto by Meridiani
Designed by Andrea Parisio for Meridiani in 2015, the enduring Plinto table is a sculptural piece marked by three elements: a monolithic base, a light structure and a top, including a round version, all of which are configurable with plenty of possibilities for personalisation. Available at Camilleriparismode.
Maxim by Cattelan Italia
With a sculptural base composed of three petals that lean on each other, the Maxim table, designed by Pio and Tito Toso for Cattelan Italia, boasts a seamless link between its shape and material. The cement base is hand-finished in clay using a cold moulding technique, and is available in three natural colours. Available at Fino.
Dublin by Homes in Heaven
With a simple round top and design highlight on the legs, this solid wooden table in natural oak by London based furniture company Homes in Heaven is an understated yet elegant addition to the dining area. Available at The House Shop.

A curved wooden base complements the porcelain top of the Prime dining table by Italian furniture manufacturer Tonin Casa. The base comes in dark oak, black ash and walnut, while the table top is available in a slew of colours and finishes. Brand available at Dino Fino.
