If you want to instill a sense of classicism in your dining space without going overboard, may we suggest a round pedestal dining table? Here's why: The look of a pedestal table—which really just means that there's one single central support as opposed to a tripod setup or four legs—is simple but not boring. Plus, because they're round and don't have legs in the way, you can typically fit more chairs around them than you can around a square or rectangular table. Best of all, though, some of the most famous and beloved tables of all time (hint: think of the flower that inspired Finnish-American designer and architect Eero Saarinen to design one of the most copied pieces), have a pedestal base. You really can't go wrong with such a traditionally gorgeous piece of furniture.
So, if you want to upgrade your current dining setup, shop our favorite options below across multiple price points. Our curated list offers quite a variety, so whether you're looking for something small and simple, large and extravagant, or anything in the middle, you'll find it here. Now, all you have to do is select your favorite and add it to your cart.
There are no rules when it comes to pedestal tables: They can be big enough to accommodate 10 people or small enough to be considered a bistro. So, if you live in a small space and love the idea of incorporating a pedestal dining table into your space, get something like this and tuck it into a corner of your space, placing two chairs next to each other (as opposed to opposite one another). Because this one is contract-grade, it comes with an adjustable rubber leveler to adapt to varying floor levels, so feel free to bring it to your next home as well.
Available in two sizes, this pedestal is definitely one of the cooler options on our list. It may be simple in its solid wood construction, but it’s a midcentury-inspired masterpiece that we couldn’t leave off the list. Get it in matte black to add a touch of moodiness to your dining room. Even the smaller size can comfortably fit three chairs around it (four, if you’re open to a tighter squeeze), so feel free to invite your friends over for a delicious home cooked meal.
This Anthropologie pedestal table reminds us of an Alexander Calder sculpture because the support pieces appear to balance atop one another, keeping the surface perfectly level. It’s definitely a room-anchoring piece, so if you want to let it shine, consider keeping the rest of the pieces on the quieter side so that the table isn't competing for attention. We kind of love this with a white fruit bowl in the middle, creating a stark color contrast.
If you like the shape of this table, but aren’t completely sold on the fluting or finish, know that Amazon offers seven additional iterations featuring different colors, pedestal shapes, and more. The fact that it’s under $550 is the cherry on top. Grab four plush dining chairs and arrange them around the table for your next meal at home.
Made from solid sheesham wood that’s done with an oil finish that gives it that subtle sheen, the Myron table is one of our favorites. It’s dramatic but not so much that it’s overpowering in a room. If you want to keep the drama going, pair the table with a set of unexpected chairs, like the ones pictured. As you may have guessed, we have a thing for a strong black-and-white pairing.
Birch Lane is another brand we love and is owned by Wayfair (who also owns Perigold). There are two main differences between this and Perigold, though: The look and the price. While Perigold skews more high-end and features pieces from hundreds of brands, Birch Lane is a bit more traditional and affordable. We are not saying that this $1,099 table is cheap, but it’s not nearly as pricey as some home goods you’ll find on Perigold. In fact, the most expensive dining table on Perigold is a whopping $94,000, and the most expensive one on Birch Lane is just over $4,000.
Leave it to AllModern to deliver on its brand promise of gorgeous midcentury modern-inspired furniture. This glass topped dining table is giving major Noguchi vibes, courtesy of the sculptural wood base and simple glass surface. We’d also like to add that a table like this is ideal for anyone prone to spills since glass is so easy to clean.
Made with a walnut veneer and lacquered white glass top, the Theo dining table boasts a look that'll pair well with all kinds of chairs. That said, if you like the chairs pictured, you can order your table with a set of two or four Joshua dining chairs.
Perhaps the closest version of the table Saarinen had originally designed, Williams Sonoma Home's take is a modern homage worthy of anyone with an affinity for the 1950s.
Crafted from solid white oak with a natural matte finish, the Formation dining table doesn't skimp on style. It may feel like gloss is having a moment right now, but matte finishes are here to stay.
