Which table style is right for you?

You’re in the process of shopping for a new custom dining table, aiming to find the perfect one for your kitchen or dining room. With a plethora of table styles available, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed.

A critical decision you’ll need to make is whether to opt for a Pedestal or Trestle table. To assist you in making an informed choice, we’ve outlined their key differences.

A Trestle Table features two trestle supports connected by a longitudinal cross board, making it ideal for seating large groups around a rectangular surface. For instance, our Clare Trestle, pictured below, is perfect for gathering friends and family.

Trestle models are versatile enough to fit both a cozy kitchen breakfast nook and a formal dining room. Pairing benches with your trestle table not only enhances seating convenience but also highlights the table’s natural beauty. Visualize a Rustic Grey setup with a bench with back alongside a Frassati Trestle table in your space.
