Best Dining Tables in Australia: The Sitchu Edit

A dining table not only forms the foundation of a dining area but becomes a hub of activity in its own right. It’s a spot for breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as homework and work, afternoon tea or a glass of wine over a good catch-up. Whether round or rectangular, timber or marble, a dining table is an essential element to facilitate family and friend gatherings as well as a piece that can echo the rest of your home’s decor. A search not to be taken lightly! Read on for our edit of the best dining tables in Australia.
