Collection: Antique and Designer Tables

Antique, vintage, and designer tables: a selection for every style and period

Introduction

Looking for an antique walnut table, an Italian designer dining table from the 1960s, or a 19th-century-style desk-table? This collection brings together tables selected from antiques, modern antiques, and 20th-century Italian design—unique pieces, verified and ready to be enjoyed.

You'll find dining tables, extendable tables, round tables, coffee tables, console tables, and game tables, in fine woods such as walnut, cherry, mahogany, and rosewood. Each piece is personally selected by Dario Raia for its construction quality, state of preservation, and aesthetic appeal. No reproductions, no mass-produced pieces: only originals with a history.

How to choose the right table

An antique or vintage table isn't just a piece of furniture—it's the centerpiece of the home. The right questions to ask are: how many people does it have to accommodate? Should it be extendable? Which style integrates best with the existing furnishings?

Solid walnut tables from the 18th and 19th centuries are the most sturdy and versatile: they match both classic and contemporary interiors. Designer tables from the 1950s and 1960s—often in wood and metal or with marble tops—are ideal for those seeking a statement piece with a more modern aesthetic. Console tables and coffee tables complete elegant settings without taking up space.

FAQ

Can I use an antique table every day?
Yes. Antique solid wood tables are built to last for centuries and hold up perfectly to daily use. Regular maintenance with beeswax is sufficient to preserve them over time.

Are antique tables extendable?
Many 19th and early 20th-century dining tables feature a leaf or central extension system. The condition of the mechanism is always verified and indicated on the product sheet.
